Grilled Sirloin with Red Wine and Herb Marinade
As a stay at home parent, I know the importance of a delicious, nutritious meal for my family. That’s why I love to make this flavorful grilled sirloin with red wine and herb marinade. It’s a simple yet scrumptious dish that pairs perfectly with any side dish. Plus, the marinade really adds a unique taste that can’t be beaten!
To start, gather the following ingredients: 2 pounds of sirloin steak, ¼ cup of red wine, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of dried oregano, ½ teaspoon of salt, and ½ teaspoon of ground black pepper.
Next, prepare the marinade. In a medium bowl, mix together the red wine, olive oil, parsley, garlic powder, oregano, salt and pepper.

Place in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours (or overnight for best results).
When you’re ready to cook the steak, preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Remove the sirloin steak from the marinade and pat dry with paper towels. Grill for approximately 5 minutes per side or until desired doneness is achieved. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving with your favorite sides.
