Place the Beef Top Round Steak in a resealable bag or a shallow dish
In a separate bowl whisk together olive oil soy sauce garlic lemon juice black pepper salt paprika thyme and onion powder to create a marinade
Pour the marinade over the steak ensuring it is evenly coated then cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results
Preheat the grill or skillet over medium-high heat
Remove the steak from the marinade and let excess liquid drip off
Grill or sear the steak for about 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare or until desired doneness is reached
Use an instant-read thermometer to check doneness
For medium-rare cook to 130 to 135°F
For medium cook to 135 to 145°F
For well done cook to 150°F and above
Once cooked remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing
Slice against the grain to maximize tenderness and serve warm
