Optional Marinade

Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Marinade (Optional)

In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, and honey. Mix well.

2

Marinate the Steak (Optional)

If using the marinade, place the shell steak in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, seal or cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.

Cooking

3

Preheat the Grill

Preheat your grill to high heat (about 450°F to 500°F). If using charcoal, let the coals burn until they are covered with ash.

4

Season the Steak

Remove the steak from the marinade (if marinated) and pat dry with paper towels. Rub both sides with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and fresh rosemary.

5

Grill the Steak

Place the steak on the hot grill. Cook for about 6-8 minutes on one side, then flip and grill for another 6-8 minutes for medium-rare, adjusting time to your preferred doneness.

6

Rest the Steak

Once cooked to your liking, remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for about 5-10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.

7

Serve

Slice the steak against the grain and serve with your choice of sides.
