Grilled Top Sirloin Steak with Herb Infusion

Ingredients

• Top sirloin steak (2 (1-inch thick, about 1 pound each))
• Olive oil (1/4 cup)
• Garlic (3 cloves, minced)
• Fresh thyme (2 sprigs)
• Fresh rosemary (2 sprigs)
• Salt (1 teaspoon, or to taste)
• Black pepper (1/2 teaspoon, or to taste)

Instructions

1. Preheat your grill to high heat (about 450°F to 500°F).
2. In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. This flavorful marinade will enhance the natural taste of the beef.
3. Rub the marinade generously over both sides of the top sirloin steaks, ensuring an even coating.
4. Let the steaks marinate at room temperature for 15-30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.
5. Once the grill is hot, place the steaks directly onto the grill grates.
6. Grill the steaks for 6-8 minutes on one side, then flip and grill for an additional 6-8 minutes, or until the desired level of doneness is reached (130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium).
7. During the last 2 minutes of grilling, add the sprigs of rosemary and thyme directly onto the grill. This will infuse the steaks with delicious herbal aromas as they finish cooking.
8. Remove the steaks from the grill and allow them to rest for 5 minutes to let the juices redistribute.
9. Slice against the grain and serve immediately, garnished with additional fresh herbs if desired.
