Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 3 cloves minced garlic
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon  ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions

  • Step 1 – In a mixing bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, minced garlic, honey, olive oil, ground black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and onion powder until well blended.
  • Step 2 – Place your filet mignon in a sealable plastic bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is completely coated. Seal or cover, and refrigerate.
  • Step 3 – Let the steak marinate in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours, ideally 6 hours for optimal flavor infusion.
  • Step 4 – Remove the steak from the marinade and let it come to room temperature, approximately 30 minutes before grilling.
  • Step 5 – Preheat your grill to high heat. Place the marinated steak on the grill and cook to your preferred level of doneness, typically about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare.
  • Step 6 – After grilling, let the steak rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
  • Step 7 – Serve your perfectly marinated and grilled filet mignon with your choice of side dishes for a complete gourmet meal.
