To prepare the steak: Place the wine, rosemary, thyme, bay leaves, onion, garlic and olive oil in a large shallow baking dish and stir to combine. Add the steak and turn to coat both sides. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight. Heat the grill, remove the meat from the marinade, season both sides with salt and pepper to taste and grill 6 to 7 minutes on each side.

- 1 large zucchini, quartered
- 12 asparagus spears, trimmed
- Olive oil
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- Finely chopped parsley and chives
Preheat grill. Brush the vegetables with olive oil and season the vegetables with salt and pepper to taste. Grill all the vegetables until just cooked through. Arrange on a platter and sprinkle with herbs.

I really let it marinate a while- overnight- to let all the flavors soak in. Turned out amazing this way, as the alcohol really caramelized to a delicious outer crust and the inside was so tender. Made it for an alcohol themed potluck and it was the perfect main dish to serve to the crowd!

I'd never done a red wine marinade before -- simply delicious. By the way, a $1.99 bottle of Trader Joe's Cabernet worked just great. No need to spend any more on a "finer" wine.
