what is a good one that is low calorie? it doesn't mater if it s home made or store bought just need to be yummy but not full of calories that is would rather spend on actual food and not on extra flavor.

My mom's standby -- olive oil, lemon juice -- probably 2-4 tbsp of each, depending on how large your steak is, + chopped garlic (largish pieces, you want them to stick in the steak, if you score it the way I do)

Other is tomato juice & fresh (if available) basil. If not fresh, then 2-3 tsp dried basil.

thanks. Yeah it is still frozen at the moment so I stabbed it instead of scoring it. Thanks!
