Ingredients
Scale
1.5 lbs skirt steak
3 tbsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
1 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
1 tbsp fresh thyme, chopped
1 tbsp lemon juice
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic, parsley, rosemary, thyme, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
Place skirt steak in a resealable bag or shallow dish and pour marinade over it. Seal and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours.
Preheat grill to high heat.
Remove steak from marinade and let excess drip off. Grill for 3–4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness.
Transfer steak to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.
Serve with your choice of sides such as roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
Notes
Don’t overcook skirt steak—it’s best served medium-rare to medium for optimal tenderness.
Fresh herbs offer the best flavor, but dried herbs can be used in a pinch (use 1/3 the amount).
Letting the steak rest before slicing helps retain its juices.
