When I saw that a cook-a-thon was going on for you and knew my son wanted marinated steak, I looked for your steak recipes and luckily found this recipe. I just love lemon so I started the marinade right away and but in a 3/4 lb. sirloin steak. I cut the recipe in half and followed as written except didn't cut the steak for skewers. It didn't marinade the full 8 hours, only 5-6 hours, and the last hour was out at room temperature. I then put it on the grill, at which point I added seasoned salt and pepper, and cooked to med-well. My 16 yo DS and I really enjoyed this steak and will definitely make it again, and try other meats!!! Served it with grilled onions, baked potato and green beans!!! Thanks for sharing Kit.
