Best Marinated Skirt Steak With Pan Roasted Vegetables Recipes

SKIRT STEAK MARINATED WITH ROASTED TOMATO SALSA

Steps:

• For the roasted tomato salsa: Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. (Or prepare a grill for high heat.)
• Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the tomatoes, onions, jalapeno and garlic on the parchment. Roast for 15 to 20 minutes, then remove the onions and garlic and set aside; peel the garlic. Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast the jalapeno and tomatoes until charred and soft, about 15 minutes more.
• (Or, if making on the grill, place the vegetables on a perforated pan or aluminum foil on the hot grill. Cook, covered and turning when necessary, until all the vegetables are evenly charred and soft. The tomatoes and jalapeno will take longer than the garlic and onions, so remove everything as it finishes cooking.)
• Transfer all the vegetables to a blender and add the cilantro, chipotles with adobo sauce and salt. Blend on medium speed until a uniform puree has formed. With the motor running, slowly add the oil until emulsified and completely incorporated. If the consistency of the salsa is too thick, add some water 1 tablespoon at a time until the desired consistency is achieved. Taste and adjust the seasonings, adding more chipotle if desired. Let cool before using, or transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate until needed. The salsa will keep for up to 1 week.
• For the skirt steak: Season the steak on both sides with salt and pepper. Toss with some of the roasted tomato salsa and marinate, refrigerated, for at least 1 1/2 hours and up to overnight. Reserve the remaining salsa for serving.
• For the grilled romaine: To clean the romaine, place the halves in a large bowl (or several bowls) filled with cold water. Swoosh the lettuce gently in the water and let it sit for 10 minutes--the dirt and grime will settle to the bottom of the bowl. Gently lift the lettuce out of the water and rinse the bowl. Repeat the cleaning process until the water remains clean after you've swished the leaves around in it. Gently pat the lettuce dry around and between the leaves to remove as much moisture as possible. Rinse and dry the bowl, and place the lettuce back in it. Season the lettuce with the olive oil and some salt and pepper, and gently toss to combine.
• Prepare a grill or grill pan for medium-high heat.
• Remove the steak from the marinade and let any excess marinade drip off. Grill 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium rare. Let rest for 5 to 7 minutes.
• Place the romaine halves on the grill cut-side down and grill until well marked, about 2 minutes. Rotate the romaine 45 degrees and grill until well marked again, 2 minutes more. (If doing this on a grill pan, you may need to work in batches.)
• Transfer the romaine halves to a cutting board and chop them into 2-inch pieces. Place the romaine in a large bowl and toss with the lemon juice. Slice the steaks thin and serve with the reserved roasted tomato salsa and grilled romaine. Serve immediately.

SKIRT STEAK WITH ROASTED ROOT VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Pick the leaves off the rosemary sprig and toss them with the carrots, parsnips, 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce, 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste in a shallow baking dish. Roast, stirring once, until the vegetables are tender and golden brown, about 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix the garlic, chopped rosemary, the remaining 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 tablespoon olive oil, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Rub all over the steaks.
• When the vegetables are halfway done (after about 12 minutes), heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil. Working in batches if necessary, sear the steaks, 2 to 5 minutes per side for medium rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let stand 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with the roasted vegetables and drizzle with the pan juices.

MARINATED SKIRT STEAK WITH QUICK-PICKLED FETA

Steps:

• For the steak: Heat a cast iron or heavy-bottomed skillet and add half of the oil. When the oil begins to smoke lightly, season the steak on both sides with salt and use a pair of tongs to carefully drop it into the hot oil in the skillet. Cook it on the first side for 1 minute and then turn it on the second side for another minute. In a small bowl, stir together the garlic, Worcestershire sauce, rosemary, and fennel seeds. Remove the steak from the skillet; it will still be barely cooked. Use the back of a spoon to spread the garlic mixture on both sides of the steak and allow it to rest for 10 minutes. Refrigerate for a few hours and allow it to marinate or simply sear it again and serve.
• For the vinaigrette: In a small bowl, combine the feta cheese with the red wine vinegar, oregano, and olive oil. Stir to blend. Set aside
• To assemble: When ready to serve the steak, wipe out the grease and anything sticking to the bottom of the skillet. Heat the skillet again and add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Sear the steak again and cook to desired temperature. For medium rare, cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Remove the steak from the skillet and place it on a flat surface. Cut against the natural grain of the meat to tenderize. Top with the feta dressing. Serve immediately.
