In shallow dish, combine all ingredients except meat and olives. Score steaks by making shallow cuts in crisscross pattern on one side; add to marinade. Marinate in refrigerator for at least 2 hours, turning several times. Remove steaks, reserving marinade. Broil or place on hot grill, about 3 inches from heat. Cook for 4 minutes per side for rare; 6 minutes for medium. Baste meat several times with marinade. Garnish with olives on a toothpick.
