Broiled Skirt Steak For Fall Season

Fall season is slowly approaching so I’m sure you are taking advantage of grilling outside as much as you can before it finally hits the weather and time to cover the grill again. But just because it’s cold, raining, or snowing outside doesn’t mean you can’t have that “grilled” taste that you want in your meat. You know, there’s that thing in your oven called “Broil”. Not only does it cook the meat real fast, it also gives that slight grilled burn texture and taste. Not as much as when you’re grilling outside of course but just a touch which is usually what you need to satiate the summer craving.

So if you happen to have skirt steak in the fridge that you wish you could grill up, why don’t you just marinate it like usual then broil it?

INGREDIENTS :
Skirt Steak
2 tbsp olive oil
juice of half lime
dried herbs like parsley, oregano, basil, and thyme
a couple squirt of balsamic vinegar
a couple squirt of Worcestershire sauce
salt and pepper

Whisk together olive oil, lime juice, dried herbs, balsamic vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper in a bowl. Put the skirt steak in a baking pan or container. Coat both sides with the marinade. Store in the fridge and marinade for an hour or so before broiling.

Broil the skirt steak on high setting for about 8-10 minutes or depending on the size of the steak. The thicker/bigger the longer to broil.

Now doesn’t that look good for dinner even if it’s cold, raining, or snowing outside? You know what else? The heat from the broiler would probably help warm up the house for a few minutes too.
