A lime juice marinade really perks up these grilled steaks, and the snappy, light citrus salsa is a super change from the usual heavy steak sauce. I brighten up winter meals by broiling the meat and serving it this way. —Kathleen Smith, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 3 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1/8 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1-1/2 pounds beef top sirloin steak (about 1 inch thick)
- SALSA:
- 2 navel oranges, peeled, sectioned and chopped
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions

Directions
- In a shallow dish, combine the first six ingredients; add beef. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight, turning occasionally.
- Drain and discard marinade. Broil or grill steak, uncovered, over medium heat for 4-6 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°).
