Ingredients

  • 4 Pork steaks boneless or bone-in

Marinade Ingredients

  • 8 Tablespoons Olive oil
  • ¼ cup Soy sauce
  • ¼ cup Honey
  • Lemon juice from one lemon
  • Lemon zest from one lemon
  • Black pepper to taste
  • Sea salt to taste
  • 2 cloves Garlic crushed

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, honey, lemon juice, and lemon zest, microwaving it briefly if the honey doesn't dissolve. Add in the salt, pepper, and minced garlic, then set aside ¼ cup of the marinade. Pour the rest in a zip-lock bag.

  • Add the pork steaks to the bag, squeezing it around until they're well coated. Set in the fridge to marinate overnight, or on the counter to marinate for at least 1 hour (but never over 2!).

  • Preheat the grill to medium-high, or set a grill pan in the oven at 385°F. Once hot, add the pork steaks.

  • Sear for 2 minutes, then flip and baste with the reserved marinade. Repeat every 2 minutes until the steaks have cooked for a total of 10-12 minutes, or reach an internal temperature of 145°F.

Notes

  • A grill pan works great for this recipe, so don't feel limited to only making these grilled pork steaks in the summer!
  • Boneless and bone-in shoulder blade steaks both work great for this recipe! If you can't find boneless but don't like cooking bone-in, just carefully cut the bone out of the steak before cooking them.
  • In my area, shoulder blade steaks regularly go on incredible sales. I recommend storing a few in the freezer!
  • If you're marinating these steaks at room temperature, make absolutely sure not to let them marinate for over two hours. This can start propagating bacteria that make the food unsafe to eat.
  • Slice the meat extra thin. This ensures incredibly tender, juicy meat that you won't believe is pork!
