# What You'll Need:
→ Garlic Butter and Garnish
01 -
1/2 cup parsley, chopped fresh
02 -
6 tablespoons butter, unsalted
03 -
6 teaspoons minced garlic
→ Main Components
04 -
Black pepper, as much as you like
05 -
Salt, use to your taste
06 -
2 pounds skirt steak
# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 -
Grab your knife and slice the meat into thin pieces, cutting the opposite way of the grain. Spread the steak pieces on a big plate, pour the garlic butter all over, then toss on some parsley to finish. Dig in while it's hot.
02 -
Put butter in a different skillet and keep the heat on low. Stir in the garlic and keep moving it around for about 1 or 2 minutes until it smells great and gets a little golden. Pour it into a bowl straight away so it doesn’t burn.
03 -
Let a big skillet heat up on medium-high until it’s really hot. Splash in a bit of neutral oil. Sear the steak slices for two or three minutes each side for medium-rare, or leave them on longer if you like. Take the steak out and let it sit on a plate.
04 -
Snip and trim your skirt steak so it’ll fit in the pan. Grab some paper towels and dry the steak off. Season both sides pretty good with salt and black pepper.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
Letting the steak chill after cooking spreads out the juices for the most tender bites.
02 -
Chop parsley at the last minute so it looks bright and stays fresh.
