Marinated Skirt Steak

  • 1 and ½ pounds of skirt steak
  • 1 Tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 2 Tablespoons Tamari gluten free soy sauce
  • 2 Tablespoons worcestershire sauce (night shade)
  • 2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon of cumin
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 10 cracks of black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 Tablespoon of tequila

Instructions

  • Combine everything but steak and whisk.
  • Add steak and marinade in a ziploc bag and seal.
  • Marinate 30 minutes up to 2 hours.
  • Transfer steak to a preheated cast iron pan over medium-high heat.
  • Cook for 4 to 6 minutes per side until your desired temperature. Skirt steak is best served medium rare. The longer it cooks, the tougher it will become. I suggest medium rare at 135 degrees. Pro tip: pull it at 130 as it will cook as it rests.
  • Rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Slice it thin, against the grain for the most tender meat.
  • Medium-Rare: 130 – 135 degrees F.
  • Medium: 135 – 145 degrees F.
  • Medium-Well plus: pick a different cut of steak

You can serve it as you would any steak but it also makes the most amazing tacos! I top them with vegetable escabeche.
