Dinner Tonite 01.17.11 - Kansas City Strip Steak Beer/Parsley/Horseradish Marinade

Dinner.  Diner.  Dine.

I actually prefer the word supper.  Why?  I don't know - it seems so simple - so unpretentious. Makes me think of the old black and white TV shows, ya know?  ...everyone is called to supper

Down to business!...

Tonight is Kansas City Strip Steak Night.  As you read earlier, I'm embracing the low carb "thing" and Chris came back from the grocery store with the steaks.  Immediately I began thinking of a marinade that would be made from fresh ingredients and have a "kick" to it and make my mouth do a dance.

Here's my marinade creation:
In a blender combine half a beer (flavor of your choice), a good couple glugs of olive oil, about half a  chopped purple onion, a small handful of torn parsley, a small spoon of  horseradish (creamy or plain - I used plain), several shakes of salt and pepper, and several shakes of garlic powder.

Blend until the mixture has a pseudo smooth consistency / appearance.

Prick your steak with a steak knife so you have several "holes" the marinade can soak into.

Pour the marinade over your steak(s) and refrigerate up to 5 hours - remove 15 minutes prior to grilling.

Enjoy!
