Marinate the Steak
Place the skirt steak in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight for optimal flavor.

Grill the Steak
Remove the steak from the marinade and let any excess marinade drip off. Place the steak on the hot grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer for accuracy (135°F for medium-rare).

Rest the Steak
Once cooked, transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute within the meat.
