Mod de preparare
Pas cu pas
- 1
In a large non-reactive bowl, whisk together the lime juice, orange juice, tamari, olive oil, minced garlic, and all dried spices to create the marinade.
Aproximativ 5 min.
Nota bucătarului: Using a bowl or a resealable bag both work well for marinating.
- 2
Add the skirt steak to the marinade, turning it to ensure it is fully coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, and up to 8 hours for deeper flavor.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: For best results, take the steak out of the fridge 30 minutes before cooking to let it come to room temperature.
- 3
Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: A cast-iron skillet is ideal for getting a good char on the vegetables and a great sear on the steak.
- 4
Add the sliced bell peppers and onion to the hot skillet. Sauté, stirring occasionally, for 6-8 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp and have some charred spots.
Aproximativ 8 min.
Nota bucătarului: Don't overcrowd the pan; cook the vegetables in batches if necessary to ensure they sauté rather than steam.
- 5
Transfer the cooked vegetables to a platter and set aside.
Aproximativ 1 min.
- 6
Increase the skillet heat to high. Remove the steak from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off, and place it in the hot skillet.
Aproximativ 1 min.
Nota bucătarului: Discard the leftover marinade for food safety.
- 7
Sear the steak for 3-5 minutes per side for a medium-rare finish, adjusting time based on the thickness of the cut.
Aproximativ 8 min.
Nota bucătarului: Avoid moving the steak while it's searing to develop a good crust.
- 8
Transfer the cooked steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 10 minutes.
Aproximativ 10 min.
Nota bucătarului: Resting is crucial; it allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
- 9
Thinly slice the rested steak against the grain. Serve immediately with the warm vegetables and optional corn tortillas.
Aproximativ 3 min.
Nota bucătarului: Slicing against the grain shortens the muscle fibers, making the meat much more tender to eat.
