Grilled Skirt Steak With Smoky Herb Sauce Recipes

GRILLED SKIRT STEAK WITH GREEN AND SMOKEY RED CHIMICHURRI

Steps:

• For the green chimichurri: Combine the parsley, mint, oregano, canola oil, vinegar, red pepper flakes and garlic in a food processor and process until smooth.
• Put the steak in a large baking dish, add the green chimichurri and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours and up to 24 hours. Remove the steak from the marinade and place on a plate 30 minutes before grilling.
• For the red chimichurri: Using a mortar and pestle, combine the parsley, olive oil, vinegar, oregano, chipotle, paprika, red pepper flakes, garlic and some salt and pepper.
• Preheat a charcoal or gas grill to high heat.
• Sprinkle the steaks with salt and pepper on both sides. Grill until charred on both sides and cooked to medium-rare doneness, about 5 minutes per side. Remove from the grill and let rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes. Cut the meat across the grain into thin slices, top with the red chimmichurri and garnish with parsley leaves.

GRILLED SKIRT STEAK WITH SMOKY HERB SAUCE

Steps:

• For the steak: Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium high.
• Sprinkle the skirt steak with the salt and drizzle with the olive oil. Place on the grill and cook to the desired doneness, 4 to 6 minutes per side, depending on the thickness. (The outside of the steak should have a golden-brown char.) Remove to a platter and squeeze the lemon half over the steak. Let rest for 10 minutes.
• For the herb sauce: Meanwhile, put the shallot, basil, mint, parsley, olive oil, salt, lemon zest, lemon juice, almonds and paprika in a medium bowl. Mix together until combined.
• Cut the steak on the bias into 1/2-inch-thick slices, against the grain. Serve with the herb sauce.

GRILLED SKIRT STEAK WITH GARLIC AND HERBS

Steps:

• In a blender or food processor, combine basil, scallions, lemon thyme, garlic, peperoncini, salt and lemon zest and juice. Pour olive oil over mixture; blend until it turns to paste.
• Using paper towels, pat steak dry and place in a large bowl; slather paste mixture all over meat. Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes or overnight.
• Light the grill or heat the broiler with the rack as close to the heat source as possible. Use a paper towel to pat steak dry. (You can leave some of the paste, but for the best sear, the meat should be dry when it hits the grill.) Grill meat over direct heat until char lines appear, and meat is done to taste, 3 to 5 minutes per side, or broil until charred, 2 to 5 minutes per side. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing against the grain and serving, garnished with herbs and scallions.
