Lime and Oregano Skirt Steak

Skirt steak lends itself beautifully to this lime and oregano marinade, full of flavour and quick to cook.
Servings: 6 people
Author: Amanda Lawson

Ingredients

  • 2 skirt steaks (about 450 g each) vaccuum-sealed, for freshness
  • 4 cloves garlic, peeled and grated
  • 3 limes, juiced (about 1/4 cup)
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 5 sprigs fresh oregano leaves (about 1/4 cup)
  • black pepper

Instructions

  • Mix all the marinade ingredients together.
  • Cut open the corners of the vacuum-sealed bags and pour half of the marinade into each bag. Massage it into the meat. Keeping the meat in the bags, refrigerate the steak.
  • Marinate the meat in the fridge for a few hours before you intend to cook it, ideally at least 4 hours. Bring the steak to room temperature an hour before you cook it.
  • Preheat the BBQ to high. Cook the steak for about 4 minutes each side, which will give you medium-rare to medium, depending on the thickness of the cut. Rest the meat for about 10 minutes before slicing it across the grain.
