GRILLED SKIRT STEAK WITH GARLIC AND HERBS



Grilled Skirt Steak With Garlic and Herbs image

Grilling might just be the best way to cook up a skirt steak. The intense heat gives the succulent and flavorful cut a rich char that's smoky and crisp at the edges. The trick is to get the fire hot enough and dry off any marinade before placing the meat on the grill. This will give you the deepest sear. Here, the meat is marinated in a garlicky herb paste flecked with pickled pepperoncini chiles. Other pickled peppers will work, too, so feel free to substitute pickled jalapeños if that's what you've got. Or use a fresh jalapeño and a dash of pickle juice to get a similar hot and vinegary punch. Lastly, be sure not to overcook the meat. Rare to medium rare guarantees tender beef.

Time 1h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup basil leaves, more for garnish
3 scallions, white and green parts, thinly sliced, more for garnish
2 tablespoons lemon thyme leaves, more for garnish
2 fat garlic cloves, roughly chopped
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped peperoncini (1 to 2 peppers), pickled jalapeño or other pickled peppers
2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
Finely grated zest of 1 lemon
Juice of half a lemon
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 1/2 pounds skirt steak

Steps:

  • In a blender or food processor, combine basil, scallions, lemon thyme, garlic, peperoncini, salt and lemon zest and juice. Pour olive oil over mixture; blend until it turns to paste.
  • Using paper towels, pat steak dry and place in a large bowl; slather paste mixture all over meat. Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes or overnight.
  • Light the grill or heat the broiler with the rack as close to the heat source as possible. Use a paper towel to pat steak dry. (You can leave some of the paste, but for the best sear, the meat should be dry when it hits the grill.) Grill meat over direct heat until char lines appear, and meat is done to taste, 3 to 5 minutes per side, or broil until charred, 2 to 5 minutes per side. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing against the grain and serving, garnished with herbs and scallions.

GRILLED SKIRT STEAK



Grilled Skirt Steak image

Categories     Beef     Quick & Easy     Summer     Grill/Barbecue     Bon Appétit

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 1/2 teaspoons whole black peppercorns
2 lb skirt steak (about three 1/2-inch-thick pieces)
1 tablespoon coarse sea salt
Accompaniment: chimichurri sauceepi:recipelink

Steps:

  • Prepare grill for cooking over direct heat with hot charcoal (high heat for gas; see Grilling Procedureepi:recipelink.
  • While grill is heating, coarsely crush peppercorns with a mortar and pestle or by wrapping them in a kitchen towel and pressing with bottom of a heavy skillet.
  • Pat steaks dry and sprinkle both sides with salt and crushed pepper, pressing to help adhere. Grill steaks on lightly oiled grill rack (covered only if using a gas grill), turning over once and moving around to avoid flare-ups if necessary, 6 to 8 minutes total for medium-rare. Transfer steaks to a cutting board and let stand, loosely covered with foil, 5 minutes. Thinly slice steaks diagonally.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of steak: Skirt steak is a thin, flavorful cut of beef that is perfect for grilling. It is important to choose a skirt steak that is at least 1 inch thick, as this will help it to stay juicy and tender during cooking.
  • Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak in a flavorful marinade will help to tenderize it and add flavor. The marinade can be as simple as olive oil, salt, and pepper, or it can include more complex ingredients such as herbs, spices, and citrus juices.
  • Grill the steak over high heat: Skirt steak should be grilled over high heat to quickly sear the outside and keep the inside juicy and tender. Cook the steak for 2-3 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness.
  • Let the steak rest before slicing: After grilling, let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, making it more tender and flavorful.
  • Serve the steak with your favorite sides: Skirt steak can be served with a variety of sides, such as grilled vegetables, roasted potatoes, or a simple salad.

Conclusion:

Grilled skirt steak is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a summer cookout or a weeknight dinner. By following these tips, you can grill a skirt steak that is juicy, tender, and flavorful. Serve it with your favorite sides for a complete and satisfying meal. .
