Print Recipe
- 1 cup chopped cilantro
- 1 cup olive oil
- ½ cup soy sauce
- ½ cup orange juice
- ¼ cup lime juice
- 5 cloves minced garlic
- 1-2 jalapeños seeded and diced
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 pounds skirt steak hangar, or any cut about 1 inch thick or thinner
In a bowl combine cilantro, olive oil, soy sauce, orange juice, lime juice, garlic, jalapenos, cumin, salt and pepper. Mix well and adjust seasoning to taste.
Pour half the marinade on the meat and mix well. Reserve the other half for serving.
Marinate at least 4 hours, up to 24 hours.
Get a grill to high heat. Once hot, put on meat and turn the meat every 30 seconds for about 4 minutes or until it is done to your liking (assuming meat is thinner than 1 inch). We recommend medium rare. I LOVE my instant thermometer and it’s my most invaluable tool. Reminder: Rare is 125-130℉, medium rare is 130-140℉, medium is 140-150℉, and well done is 150℉+.
Slice meat, pour reserve marinade on, and enjoy!
