So I have 1 lb of sirloin that I’m going to cook tonight (probably broilied, as we have no grill), and I need some ideas of how to prepare it. We have no steak sauce or anything, so creative ideas would help.

Quick Teriyaki:

Make a marinade of the following:  
1/2 cup red wine  
1/2 cup soy sauce  
3 cloves garlic, crushed  
2 TBSP grated ginger  
2 TBSP sugar

Warm all slightly and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Let cool.

Score the steak in a diamond pattern on both sides. Place steak in bowl with marinade and cover with plastic wrap. Now, this should actually marinate for about 8 hours, but shorter will be okay. Broil to desired doneness.

Someone should be along shortly with a London broil recipe.

The best advice I can give you is “Buy a grill”. Don’t subject your meat to a broiler! 😃

Won’t anybody _think of the meat?_

Actually, I was going to recommend a killer fajita recipe, but I don’t have the name of the marinade!! :mad:

Funny you should mention that, gatopescado (oh Catfish!), I actually did make fajitas with it…no marinade though…not enough time.

Do you have Italian dressing? It makes a great marinade.
