Broiled Skirt Steak

No ratings yet

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup olive or vegetable oil
  • ½ cup soy sauce
  • ¼ cup of orange juice
  • 2 tablespoons of brown sugar light or dark
  • 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh ginger
  • ½ teaspoon of red pepper flakes
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • ¼ teaspoon cracked black pepper
  • 2 lbs of skirt steak cleaned and trimmed

Instructions
 

  • Mix all of the marinade ingredients together in a glass container with a lid or a plastic bag. Place the trimmed skirt steak in the marinade and let it sit overnight in the refrigerator, or for at least 4 hours.
  • Preheat your broiler or preheat your oven to 450 degrees F. Wrap your baking sheet in aluminum foil or grease your cast iron pan. Add your skirt steak to the pan, stretched out as flat as possible, and then pour the marinade over the meat.
  • Place at the highest rack setting, right under the broiler element. Broil on high for four to five minutes per side, flipping once. When the internal temperature of the meat reaches at least 135 degrees F for medium done, remove and let the meat rest for five minutes. Slice and serve alongside your favorite side dishes.

Notes

Thicker skirt steaks will take longer, as will steaks cooked with a hot oven rather than direct exposure to the broiling element. Consider flipping the steak more often if you’re planning to use the oven since it’ll take longer to cook and lose more moisture over time.
