If you're nervous about cooking skirt steak, here's a recipe that pleases everyone. It's a 2-step cooking process, but makes a delicious filling for tacos and burritoes.
Carne Asada Beef
Ingredients:
1 skirt steak
1 onion
1 green bell pepper
3 to 4 heaping tsp. chopped fresh cilantro
Juice of 1 lime
Salt
Pepper
2 jalapenos peppers, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
Fire up the grill with a solid bed of charcoal, or all burners on your gas grill.
Lightly season both sides of the skirt steak with salt and pepper. Cook the steak for three minutes per side.
Remove the steak and finely dice. Heat up a heavy 11-inch cast-iron or equivalent skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tbs. cooking oil to the pan. Place the dice meat and all other ingredients into the pan. Stir frequently and cook until the onions and peppers are tender. Taste and correct the seasoning (add S & P to taste)
The smoky flavor of the grilled steak combines with the cilantro, peppers, and lime juice to create an incredible flavor.
Serve with diced avocado, or guacamole, shredded lettuce, grated cheese of choice, & diced tomato, either in a freshly steamed flour tortilla, or freshly softened, fresh corn tortilla.
