CUBAN SKIRT STEAK AND VEGETABLES

Full of flavor, skirt steak is a cut we adore. Here it's seared in a hot skillet, then pepper, onion, and rounds of corn are cooked in the same pan. Griddled flat bread rounds out the meal.

Steps:

  • Place garlic, lime juice, cumin seeds, oregano, and parsley in a food processor. With machine running, slowly add 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons oil until combined. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Pat steak dry and season with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add steak. Cook, turning once, until golden brown, 2 to 5 minutes a side, depending on thickness. Transfer to a plate.
  • Pour off fat from pan; wipe clean. Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil, onion, and bell pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are just browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Add corn; cook until browned, about 2 minutes. Return steak with juices to pan along with 1/3 cup garlic sauce. Cook, tossing, 1 minute.
  • Meanwhile, preheat a griddle or cast-iron skillet over medium. Butter both sides of bread halves. Cook, pressing with a spatula and flipping once, until golden, 5 minutes a side. Serve steak and vegetables with toasted bread and remaining garlic sauce.

8 small cloves garlic
6 tablespoons fresh lime juice (from 2 limes)
3/4 teaspoon cumin seeds, toasted
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 cup packed fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 skirt steak (1 1/2 pounds), cut into 4 pieces
1 small white onion, cut into 1/2-inch wedges (2 cups)
1 large green bell pepper, stem, ribs, and seeds removed, cut into 1/2-inch strips (2 cups)
2 ears corn, shucked and cut crosswise into 1-inch rounds
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, room temperature
1 small loaf ciabatta, halved

CHEF JOHN'S GRILLED MOJO BEEF

This Cuban-inspired mojo marinade would work great as an all-purpose marinade for just about anything destined for the grill, but skirt steak is my top choice.

Steps:

  • Cut skirt steaks into about 3 or 4 smaller pieces so it's easier to fit them into marinade dish.
  • Whisk orange juice, lime juice, olive oil, garlic, salt, cumin, pepper, oregano, and cayenne pepper together in a large bowl. Place skirt steak pieces, 1 at a time, into the marinade to thoroughly coat them. Add sliced onions and toss with the meat.
  • Transfer mixture and marinade to a resealable plastic bag. Squeeze out air, seal bag, and place on a dish. Refrigerate 2 to 3 hours.
  • Transfer pieces of meat onto paper towel-lined rimmed sheet pan to drain for a couple of minutes.
  • Cook over hot coals. Grill first side 3 to 4 minutes. Turn and grill second side until internal temperature is about 125 degrees F (53 degrees C). Look for a shiny glossy surface indicating the meat juice is coming to the surface; this indicates the meat is just about done. Transfer to a plate and allow meat to rest a few minutes.
  • Slice into 1/2-inch slices and arrange on a serving plate. Spoon accumulated juices over the meat. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with coarse salt and chopped cilantro. Serve with lime wedges.

Steps:

  • Mix marinade ingredients together. Pour into a a large zip-lock bag. Place steak in the bad and seal bag, chilled, at least 6 hours.
  • Bring steak to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
  • While steak comes to room temperature, prepare grill for cooking. If using a charcoal grill, open vents on bottom of grill, then light charcoal. Charcoal fire is hot when you can hold your hand 5 inches above rack for 1 to 2 seconds. If using a gas grill, preheat burners on high, covered, 10 minutes, then reduce heat to moderately high.
  • Grill steak on lightly oiled grill rack, uncovered, turning over once, 6-8 minutes total for medium-rare.
  • Cut steak diagonally across grain into 1/4-inch-thick slices.

CHURRASCO SKIRT STEAK CUBAN-STYLE WITH MARINADE RECIPE RECIPE - (5/5)

Churrasco Skirt Steak Cuban-Style with Marinade Recipe Recipe - (5/5) image

Steps:

  • Mojo Marinade To make the marinade: Mash garlic, salt, and peppercorns into a paste, using a mortar and pestle. Stir in sour orange juice, onion, and oregano. Let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes or longer. Whisk the garlic-orange juice mixture with the olive oil until well blended. Preparing the Meat Preparing the meat is very easy. Place the meat in a large bowl or pan. Add enough mojo marinade to cover the meat. Place a cover over the bowl or pan and place in the refrigerator a minimum of five hours, but preferably overnight. Chimichurri Sauce While your meat is marinating, make the sauce. We like to make it the easy way. Put everything except the olive oil in a blender and using the "chop" setting, click on and off until you have a thick mixture. Do not over process! This is the kind of dish you need to taste and adjust so that you get just the right flavor! So taste it! (The best way to taste it is with a piece of bread.) Whisk in the olive oil. (If you use the blender to incorporate the oil, the oil and liquids will emulsify, giving your chimichurri a white, paste-like texture.) Add salt, pepper, more vinegar and lime juice as needed. The flavor should be very intense with garlic and cilantro. Don't be stingy with the salt either! Grilling the Meat Grill the marinated steaks outdoors on the barbecue. (Make sure your coals are hot and white!) You can cook them however you like your steak -- from rare to well done. However, the rarer the meat, the more tender and flavorful! Serve the meat with the chimichurri sauce -- it tastes great!

Beef skirt steak cut in long steaks (about 3/4 pound per person or more)
Cuban Churrasco (Mojo) Marinade
3 heads garlic -- about 30 to 40 cloves
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
1 and 1/2 cups sour orange juice
(If you can't get sour orange juice in your area, use two parts orange to one part lemon and one part lime)
1 cup minced onion
2 teaspoons oregano
1 cup Spanish olive oil
Cuban Chimichurri Sauce
1 large bunch of cilantro leaves
8 cloves garlic
1/4 cup vinegar
Juice of one lime
2/3 cup olive oil
1/2 cup onion
Dash or two of red pepper flakes
Salt and Pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Place cumin seeds into a small skillet over medium heat; stir constantly until seeds turn dark brown and smell toasted, about 1 minute. Immediately pour seeds into a bowl to stop the cooking. Mix cumin seeds with orange juice, vegetable oil, steak seasoning, lime juice, and oregano in a bowl.
  • Place steaks into a large resealable plastic bag, pour orange juice marinade over the meat, and squeeze out air. Seal bag and turn it over several times to coat meat with marinade. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes, or longer for extra flavor.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove steaks from marinade, shaking off any excess. Discard used marinade. Grill steaks on the preheated grill until seared on the outsides and still slightly pink in the centers, 6 to 8 minutes per side. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted sideways into the center of the thickest steak should read 145 degrees F (65 degrees C). Let steaks rest for 3 minutes before slicing.

CHURRASCO (GRILLED MARINATED SKIRT STEAK)

Like so many of the best Puerto Rican dishes, churrasco - garlicky wood-fire-grilled steak served with chimichurri - starts by tenderizing a tougher cut of meat (skirt steak) with a flavorful marinade. Although its origins are Argentinian and Brazilian (the word churrasco encompassing grilled meats in both Spanish and Portuguese), variations on the dish are Latin American staples. This recipe kicks up a classic Puerto Rican marinade with a bit of adobo seasoning, and then served with wasakaka, an herbaceous sauce from the Dominican Republic using lime juice. The steak should be grilled over an open fire (the smoke is key), but a gas grill will do, as will a cast-iron skillet. Serve with adobo roasted potatoes, maduros, white rice or arroz mamposteao, plus fresh tomato and avocado slices.

Churrasco (Grilled Marinated Skirt Steak) image

Steps:

  • Pat the steaks dry and place in a large zip-top bag.
  • Combine the garlic, oregano, vinegar, olive oil, adobo seasoning and salt in the bowl of a pilón or mortar and pestle, or a small food processor. Grind into a thin paste, then pour the marinade over the steak. Zip the bag then shake well to coat the meat, rubbing in gently as needed. Let rest on the counter for 10 to 20 minutes, or refrigerate overnight if you have time. Be sure to let the steak come to room temperature before grilling.
  • If using a charcoal grill, start by building a fire with hardwood and kindling, then adding lump hardwood charcoal once the fire is kicking. Allow the fire to mellow. If using a gas grill, set the temperature to 500 degrees.
  • Meanwhile, make the wasakaka: Combine the lime juice, parsley, cilantro, oregano, olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper in a small bowl and whisk to incorporate. If you'd like a creamier sauce, blend in a small food processor or blender. (Wasakaka will keep for 3 or 4 days in a sealed jar in the refrigerator.)
  • Once the grill is ready, remove skirt steak from the bag and shake off excess marinade. Place on the grill and sear for 1 to 3 minutes. Using tongs, pull up the corner to ensure the steak has a good dark char, bordering on burned in places, before flipping, then cook for 1 more minute for rare, 2 minutes for medium-rare. Be careful not to overcook or steak will be tough.
  • Remove steak from grill and let rest for 5 to 7 minutes. Slice into strips and pour over wasakaka, or serve sauce on the side. Taste and sprinkle with additional salt, if desired.

1 1/2 pounds skirt steak or tri-tip (see Tip)
3 large garlic cloves
1 tablespoon fresh oregano leaves, finely chopped
1 tablespoon white vinegar
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 tablespoon adobo seasoning (preferably Loísa or Badía brands)
2 teaspoons kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal), plus more to taste
1/3 cup fresh lime juice
1/2 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves, finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh oregano leaves, finely chopped
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal)
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
