Ingredients
Scale
Steak Seasoning
- 2 1LB Boneless Rib Eye Steaks
- 2 tsp Garlic Salt
- 2 tsp Ground Black Pepper
Ginger Teriyaki Sauce
- ¼ cup Lite Soy Sauce
- ⅓ cup Water
- ¼ cup Apple Cider Vinegar
- 1 tbsp Sesame Oil
- 1 tbsp Minced Garlic
- 1 tbsp Fresh Grated Ginger
- 3 tbsp Brown Sugar
- 1 tbsp Corn Starch
- 3 tbsp Water
Instructions
- Season the Steaks. Pat the rib eye steaks dry and season both sides evenly with garlic salt and ground black pepper to enhance the natural flavors of the meat.
- Preheat the Grill. Heat your grill to 450°F and lightly spray the grates with grilling spray or oil to prevent sticking and ensure perfect grill marks.
- Grill the Steaks. Place the steaks on the hot grill and cook for 5 minutes on each side for medium-rare doneness, or adjust timing for preferred doneness. Remove the steaks and cover them with foil to keep warm while you prepare the sauce.
- Prepare the Teriyaki Sauce Base. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine lite soy sauce, water, apple cider vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, and brown sugar. Stir well and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Thicken the Sauce. In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water until smooth. Slowly pour this slurry into the simmering sauce while stirring continuously. Continue cooking on low heat until the sauce thickens, about 1 minute. Remove from heat.
- Serve. Pour the ginger teriyaki sauce generously over the grilled rib eye steaks. Garnish with chopped green onions if desired and serve hot, optionally over steamed rice.
Notes
- For perfectly cooked steaks, use a meat thermometer: 130-135°F for medium-rare.
- If you prefer a thicker sauce, increase cornstarch by 1 tsp.
- Let the steaks rest covered after grilling to retain juices.
- Green onions or sesame seeds make great garnishes.
- Can substitute rib eye with sirloin or strip steak for variation.
