Grilled Skirt Steak image

In true Argentine and Uruguayan fashion, the steak is simply seasoned with salt and pepper, so the quality of the ingredients is particularly important. This is a well-marbled cut, which makes for a juicy and full-flavored grilled steak. Steaks can be grilled in a hot lightly oiled well-seasoned large (2-burner) ridged grill pan...

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 1/2 Tbsp whole black peppercorns
2 lb skirt steak (about 3 1/2-inch thick pieces)
1 Tbsp coarse sea salt

Steps:

  • 1. Prepare grill for cooking over direct heat with hot charcoal (high heat for gas).
  • 2. While grill is heating, coarsely crush peppercorns with a mortar and pestle or by wrapping them in a kitchen towel and pressing with bottom of a heavy skillet.
  • 3. Pat steaks dry and sprinkle both sides with salt and crushed pepper, pressing to help adhere. Grill steaks on lightly oiled grill rack (covered only if using a gas grill), turning over once and moving around to avoid flare-ups if necessary, 6 to 8 minutes total for medium-rare. Transfer steaks to a cutting board and let stand, loosely covered with foil, 5 minutes. Thinly slice steaks diagonally.
