Cooking Instructions

1

Marinate the Steak

In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lime juice, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. Add the skirt steak and coat it well in the marinade. Cover and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, ideally 2 hours.

2

Preheat the Grill

Preheat your grill on high heat. Make sure the grill grates are clean and lightly oiled.

3

Grill the Steak

Remove the skirt steak from the marinade, letting excess drip off. Place it on the hot grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer if you prefer it more well done.

4

Rest and Serve

Once cooked to your desired doneness, remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. Slice against the grain, garnish with chopped cilantro, and serve.
