Grilled Latin-Style Skirt Steak image

If you're looking for a great steak dinner without breaking the bank, try marinating an inexpensive cut of meat. This marinade imparts a vibrant flavor with a distinctly Latin influence. Serve grilled onions and peppers alongside the steak.From the book "Mad Hungry," by Lucinda Scala Quinn (Artisan Books).
