Ingredients
  

Cilantro-Lime Steak Marinade

  • 16 ounce skirt steak
  • ¼ cup soy sauce or coconut aminos
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 medium lime juiced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh garlic minced
  • ½ cup fresh cilantro
  • ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

Cilantro Paste

  • 1 teaspoon fresh garlic minced
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup fresh cilantro
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • ½ medium lemon juiced
  • 1 medium jalapeno pepper de-seeded
  • ½ teaspoon cumin
  • ½ teaspoon ground coriander

Instructions
 

  • Remove the excess silverskin from the skirt steak, if your butcher left any on. In a Ziploc bag, combine skirt steak, soy sauce, olive oil, lime juice, garlic, cilantro, and red pepper flakes. Let this marinate for at least 45 minutes in the fridge.
  • To make the sauce, add garlic clove, salt, fresh cilantro, olive oil, lemon juice, jalapeno (de-seeded), cumin, and coriander to a food processor.
  • Pulse the ingredients until well combined and texture is how you want it.
  • Heat a cast iron skillet to medium-high heat. Once hot, add steak to the pan and allow to cook about 2-3 minutes per side (depending on thickness). You just want to kiss the steak with the heat, otherwise it will become tough.
  • Flip the steak and cook again for another 2 minutes or so.
  • Serve with cilantro paste spooned over the top!
