More than 1 hour.
Preparation
Step 1
It’s best to use fresh herbs, though dried ones are fine. The amount of garlic, pepper, and other ingredients can vary based on taste. Remove the meat from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for a while.
Step 2
Peel the garlic and chop it as finely as possible. Wash and dry the herbs. I used a few sprigs of fresh thyme and a heaping teaspoon of dried rosemary. Place the garlic, thyme leaves, and rosemary into a small bowl.
Step 3
Add olive oil or any neutral vegetable oil.
Step 4
Crush peppercorns in a mortar. You can use coarse ready-ground pepper, but freshly crushed pepper is much more aromatic.
Step 5
Add the pepper to the garlic and herbs and mix well. Set aside two heaping teaspoons of the marinade - you’ll use it later.
Step 6
Spread the remaining garlic marinade evenly over the pieces of meat.
Step 7
Massage the spices and oil all over the beef. Cover with plastic wrap and let it marinate for about 1 hour.
Step 8
Light the grill. Once the flames burn out and you have glowing coals, continue to the next step. Place the steaks on a dry, preheated grate. Remove any pieces of garlic from the meat beforehand, so they don’t burn. Grill over high heat until a golden crust appears.
Step 9
Flip the meat and cook until the second side browns nicely.
Step 10
Wrap the cooked steaks in foil and let them “rest” for about 10 minutes.
Step 11
Transfer the steaks to a plate and salt each piece to taste. Spread the reserved garlic marinade over the meat.
Step 12
Serve hot with salads and fresh vegetables.
Step 13
The steaks turn out incredibly juicy and aromatic.
