Ingredients
1/3 cup soy sauce 
1/3 cup lemon juice 
1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce 
1 Tablespoon minced garlic 
2 Tablespoons Italian seasoning 
1 teaspoon pepper 
1/2 teaspoon salt 
Pinch of red pepper
1 1/2 pound steaks (rib eye or New York strip) 
2 tablespoons butter 
Fresh chopped parsley
Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, lemon juice, olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, pepper, salt, and a pinch of red pepper.
Add steaks to a resealable zip lock bag or large bowl and pour the marinade on top. Marinate for 2 hours or overnight.
To cook the steaks in a skillet:
Turn the skillet to high heat.
Add the steaks and cook on each side for 3 minutes or until the outside is browned.
Reduce heat to medium-high.
Continue cooking the steaks to the desired doneness. For a medium-well result, it may take about 10 minutes, flipping 3 times.
Top the cooked steaks with butter and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
Enjoy your perfectly marinated and cooked steaks! 
Notes
- Do not marinate for more than 8 hours as the acids in the marinade can begin to break down the proteins excessively, making the meat mushy.
- Always refrigerate the steak while it marinates to prevent bacterial growth.
- Gluten-Free (ensure gluten-free soy sauce is used).
