Step 1: In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.
Step 2: Place the steaks in a shallow dish or resealable bag and coat them thoroughly with the marinade. Make sure each steak is evenly covered. For optimal flavor, refrigerate the steaks and let them marinate for at least 2-4 hours or overnight if possible. Allow the steaks to come to room temperature before grilling.
Step 3: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Make sure the grates are clean and well-oiled to prevent sticking.
Step 4: Remove the steaks from the marinade, shaking off any excess, and place them on the preheated grill. Discard the remaining marinade.
Step 5: Grill the steaks for approximately 4-6 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 130-135°F (55-57°C), while medium should reach around 140-145°F (60-63°C). Adjust the cooking time accordingly based on the thickness of your steaks and personal preference.
Step 6: Once cooked, transfer the steaks to a clean plate and tent them loosely with foil. Allow the steaks to rest for about 5 minutes. This resting period ensures that the juices redistribute, resulting in a tender and flavorful steak.
Step 7: Serve the Full Moon Grilled Steaks hot, accompanied by your choice of side dishes such as grilled vegetables, roasted potatoes, or a fresh salad.
