Grilled Sirloin Steak with Herbs

1. Trim the Sirloin Steak

Start by trimming off any excess fat from your sirloin steak. This helps reduce flare-ups on the grill and ensures a cleaner cooking process.

2. Prepare Herb Mixture

In a small bowl, mix together the chopped rosemary, thyme, oregano, coarse salt, and fresh-ground black pepper.

3. Rub Steak with Herbs and Oil

Rub the herb mixture all over the steak, pressing it in gently to infuse the flavors directly into the meat. Drizzle the steak with olive oil and let it sit at room temperature for about an hour.

4. Preheat the Grill

While your steak is resting, preheat your grill to high heat and clean the grill grate to prevent sticking.

5. Grill the Steak

Place the steak on the grill and cook for about 3 minutes on one side. Rotate the steak 90 degrees and cook for another 2-3 minutes to form crosshatch marks. Flip the steak and cook the other side for another 3-5 minutes, depending on your preferred level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check for accuracy; for medium-rare, the internal temperature should be around 130°F to 135°F.

6. Rest and Serve

Once cooked to your liking, remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for about 5 minutes. This rest period allows the juices to redistribute, making the steak more tender and flavorful.
