Ingredients
  

Main
  • 2 pounds bottom round steak
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

  1. Bring the bottom round steak to room temperature for about 30 minutes.

  3. Rub the mixture all over the steak.
  4. Heat a large skillet or grill over medium-high heat.
