grilled inside skirt steak recipe

Ingredients

6 medium cloves garlic
2 tablespoons whole peppercorns
Kosher salt to taste
1-1/2 pound Inside Imperial American Wagyu Skirt Steak, trimmed and cut into 4 pieces
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped
Few handfuls of your favorite salad mix

Directions

  1. Peel the garlic cloves and place in a mortar & pestle with whole peppercorns and a few pinches of salt. Smash until all crushed.  (If you don’t have a mortar & pestle you can use a resealable bag and smash with a rolling pin or the bottom of a small pot.)
  2. Pat the steak dry and season generously on both sides with salt and pepper. In a 12-inch skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat until simmering hot. Add the steak and brown well on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side for medium rare. Transfer the steak to a plate and let rest while you make the garlic butter.
  3. In an 8-inch skillet, melt the butter over low heat. Add the crushed garlic, peppercorn, and salt mixture and cook, swirling the pan frequently, until lightly golden, about 4 minutes.
  4. Slice the steak. Add a little salad to 4 plates and top with the sliced steak. Spoon the infused garlic butter over the steak, sprinkle with chives, then serve.
