Steps:
- Whisk garlic, balsamic vinegar, grill seasoning, oregano, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl. Add steak and toss to evenly coat. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator, 8 hours to overnight.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until sizzling; add meat. Cook uncovered until liquids have drained from the steak, 3 to 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium; cover.
- Cook steak for 15 minutes; uncover and flip. Add water to the skillet as needed to keep steak moist. Continue cooking until slightly firm, hot, and lightly pink in the center, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Transfer meat to serving plate; reserve liquid in the skillet.
- Place onion in the skillet with reserved liquids; cook and stir until softened, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low; add mushrooms. Cook and stir until mushrooms are warmed through, about 5 minutes. Pour onion mixture over steak.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of steak. For a juicy steak, choose a cut that is well-marbled with fat, such as ribeye, strip loin, or tenderloin.
- Season the steak generously. Season the steak with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices before cooking. This will help to enhance the flavor of the meat.
- Cook the steak over high heat. This will help to sear the outside of the steak and lock in the juices.
- Do not overcook the steak. Overcooked steak will be tough and dry. Cook the steak to your desired doneness, using a meat thermometer to ensure accuracy.
- Let the steak rest before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
Conclusion:
By following these tips, you can cook a juicy and flavorful steak that will be sure to impress your friends and family. Remember to choose the right cut of steak, season it generously, cook it over high heat, do not overcook it, and let it rest before serving. With a little practice, you'll be able to cook a steak like a pro!
