Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb skirt steak
- 1.5 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 large garlic cloves
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 sprig fresh rosemary
Instructions
Remove the skirt steak from the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This ensures even cooking.
Pat the steak dry using paper towels to remove any excess moisture, then season both sides generously with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Peel the garlic cloves and slice them thinly.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Swirl the pan to coat evenly with the oil.
Once the oil is hot and shimmering, carefully place the skirt steak in the skillet. Sear for 2-3 minutes on the first side without moving it to ensure a nice crust forms.
Flip the steak and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side for medium-rare, or adjust the cooking time to your preferred doneness.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the butter, sliced garlic, and fresh rosemary to the skillet. Using a spoon, baste the steak with the melted butter for about 30 seconds to infuse it with flavor.
Remove the steak from the skillet and transfer it to a cutting board. Let it rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Slice the skirt steak thinly against the grain to ensure tenderness. Serve immediately with your favorite sides.
