Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds Skirt steak
- 0.5 cup Balsamic vinegar
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons Fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the skirt steak in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish, and pour the marinade over the steak. Ensure that the entire surface of the steak is coated.
Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for best flavor.
When ready to cook, remove the steak from the marinade and let it sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes. Discard the remaining marinade.
Preheat a grill or cast-iron skillet over high heat until very hot. Lightly oil the grill grates or pan to prevent sticking.
Cook the skirt steak for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust the cooking time based on your preferred doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature: 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare or 140°F (60°C) for medium.
Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips, and serve immediately. Pair with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or a simple salad.
