Skirt Steak

Yuca Fries

Grilled Vegetables

Salsa Verde

Method

Skirt Steak

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Rub the skirt steak with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Let it sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes to marinate.

  2. 2

    Grill the Steak

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the steak for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired doneness. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Yuca Fries

  1. 3

    Prepare the Yuca

    Peel the yuca and cut it into thick fries (about 1/2 inch).

  2. 4

    Boil the Yuca

    Place the yuca fries in a pot of salted boiling water and cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain and let cool.

  3. 5

    Fry the Yuca

    In a deep pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Fry the yuca fries in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels, then season with salt.

Grilled Vegetables

  1. 6

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Chop the bell peppers, zucchini, and red onion into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 7

    Grill the Vegetables

    In a bowl, toss the chopped vegetables with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill the vegetables in a grill basket or on skewers for about 8-10 minutes or until tender and slightly charred, stirring occasionally.

Salsa Verde

  1. 8

    Make the Salsa Verde

    In a food processor, combine the cilantro, garlic, lime juice, olive oil, and salt. Blend until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste if necessary.
