How to make steak tender?!


Question:

How to make steak tender?

I have to admit, I am the worst steak cook ever. I don't know how to explain it but it always turns out chewy. Why is that and how to avoid this.
Note: I have tried making it well cooked as well as medium rare and they both felt chewy.
Thank you

No suburban mum. I have not heard of meat tenderizer before. Is this something ready made bought in stores?


Answers:

A little trick I learned in Hawaii.

Get some fresh papaya and pineapple and juice them, and then marinate the steak in the juice overnight. Both of these fruits contain a natural meat tenderizer.

Then turn on your grill until its nice and hot and sear both sides of the steak.

4 minutes a side for medium rare.
