Treat your ingredients with care...

• Garlic — Make sure to mince the garlic finely to evenly distribute its flavor throughout the marinade.
• Fresh herbs — Use fresh herbs for the best flavor. If unavailable, you can substitute with dried herbs, but reduce the quantity by half.

Tips & Tricks

• For a more intense flavor, marinate the entrecôte steaks overnight.
• Allow the steaks to come to room temperature before grilling to ensure even cooking.
• Let the steaks rest after grilling to allow the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
• Experiment with different herb combinations to personalize the marinade according to your taste preferences.
• Serve the entrecôte steaks with a dollop of herb butter for an extra burst of flavor.
