These skewers are quick and easy to make and taste terrific. With tender top sirloin, you don't need to marinate a long time to tenderize the meat, just long enough to impart the flavors of the citrus and garlic marinade. Serve over rice.

THE PERFECT MARGARITA



The Perfect Margarita image

Mastering the margarita requires a certain amount of practice, but once you dial-in your perfect ratio, it's a really easy cocktail to replicate. The classic recipe is 3 parts tequila, 2 parts triple sec, and 1 part freshly squeezed lime juice, and you should probably start off pretty close to that, but my personal favorite proportions are 4-3-2.

MARGARITA MARINADE

This super quick marinade is great for summer grilling and chilling! I use this recipe to marinate one pound of flank steak, but you can't go wrong with chicken or even firm fleshed fish. Marinate at least an hour, or preferably, overnight.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: For the best flavor, choose high-quality flank steak, fresh limes, and authentic Mexican tequila.
  • Marinate the steak overnight: This allows the flavors of the marinade to penetrate the meat and tenderize it.
  • Cook the steak over high heat: This will help to sear the steak and lock in the juices.
  • Let the steak rest before slicing: This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
  • Serve the steak with your favorite toppings: Some popular options include guacamole, salsa, sour cream, and cheese.
