About the Dish...
Everything about this marinade and dish highlights Tuscan cooking, from its overall simplicity to its use of quality ingredients and the steak's marinating to highlight the meat's flavor. Finally, the steak is seasoned just with salt and pepper before grilling - nothing too extravagant here. We’re using a moderately thick ribeye steak cut that's locally sourced, but you could also use New York Strip, Porterhouse, or T-bone steaks, which can be found at your local grocery store or market.

The beauty of this recipe is in the marinade.
This Florentine Balsamic and Rosemary Marinade is the perfect savory compliment for your next steak dinner. Made with fresh rosemary, balsamic vinegar, a little lemon zest, and the best extra virgin olive oil you can afford, the lightness of this marinade brings out the natural flavor of a juicy steak.
Make this Florentine Marinade with Simple Quality Ingredients:
1/4 cup extra virgin Olive Oil 2 tablespoons Balsamic Vinegar 2 tablespoons fresh Rosemary, chopped 1 tablespoon Lemon Zest
How to Make Florentine Balsamic and Rosemary Grilled Steak
Combine the olive oil, balsamic, rosemary, and lemon zest in a heavy plastic zipper bag. Zip the bag closed and shake to combine. Open the bag to add the steak, re-seal, and refrigerate for 5-8 hours (or overnight), turning the bag several times.
About 20 minutes before grilling, remove the steak from the refrigerator and let it sit in the bag to warm to room temperature. Meanwhile, preheat the grill to high heat.
To cook, remove the steak from the marinade and season with salt and pepper on both sides. Place the steaks on the grill over moderately high heat until golden brown and slightly charred, 3 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare (divide the time accordingly when using the flip and turn method to achieve perfect grill marks). For a medium-rare steak, the internal temperature should register about 5-degrees less than your desired doneness temperature or 130° using an instant-read thermometer. [1] Don’t worry; the meat will continue to cook rising to the perfect doneness when tented in the next step.
Transfer the steak to a rimmed cutting board or plate, tent loosely with foil, and let rest 5-7 minutes before serving.
To serve, slice the steak across the grain to divide or plate the entire generous portion.
