Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Marinate the Steak

    In a bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, lime juice, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the skirt steak to the bowl, ensuring it's well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for more flavor.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Grill

    Heat your grill to high heat, about 450°F (230°C). If using a grill pan, heat it over medium-high heat on the stove.

  3. 3

    Grill the Steak

    Remove the steak from the marinade and let excess marinade drip off. Place the steak on the hot grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness.

  4. 4

    Rest the Steak

    Once cooked, remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This helps retain the juices.

  5. 5

    Slice and Serve

    Slice the steak against the grain into strips and serve with your choice of sides, such as rice, beans, or grilled vegetables.
