Description

Tender and juicy skirt steak marinated in a flavorful blend, served with a vibrant chimichurri sauce that adds an extra kick.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound skirt steak
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 lemon, juiced

Instructions

  1. Whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and black pepper to create a flavorful marinade.
  2. Place the skirt steak in a resealable bag and pour the marinade over it. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 120 minutes, or overnight for best results.
  3. Combine parsley, cilantro, red pepper flakes, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt in a bowl for the chimichurri. Stir in olive oil until well combined.
  4. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat for a perfect sear.
  5. Remove the steak from the marinade and grill for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare.
  6. Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve with chimichurri sauce on top.

Notes

For best flavor, marinate the steak overnight. Slice against the grain for a tender bite.
