Ingredients

• 2 pounds skirt steak trimmed of excess fat

Carne Asada Marinade

• 1 jalapeño seeded and minced
• 4 cloves garlic minced
• 1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves chopped
• juice of 1 orange
• juice of 1 lime
• juice of 1 lemon
• 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 1/3 cup olive oil
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

1. In a large glass baking dish whisk together Cane Asada marinade ingredients until combined, jalapeño through black pepper. Add skirt steak in a single layer, turning to coat with marinade. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, but no longer than 8 hours (longer will begin to break down the meat).
2. Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high. Grill steaks for 7 to 10 minutes per side, turning once for medium-rare. Remove steaks and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
3. Slice thinly across the grain and serve.
