Churrasco (Grilled Marinated Skirt Steak) Recipe (Page 2 ) | July 17, 2025

 

Marinating the Skirt Steak

1/ In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, ground cumin, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and pepper until well combined.

2/ Place the skirt steak in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag.

3/ Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is evenly coated. Cover or seal the dish/bag and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.

Grilling Instructions:

1/ Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate to prevent sticking.

2/ Remove the marinated skirt steak from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before grilling.

3/ Once the grill is hot, remove the steak from the marinade, shaking off any excess, and place it on the grill.

4/ Grill the steak for 3 to 5 minutes per side, depending on your desired level of doneness. For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 130°F (54°C).

5/ Once cooked to your liking, transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Serving

1/ After resting, slice the Churrasco steak thinly against the grain to maximize tenderness.
2/ Serve the grilled marinated skirt steak with a generous drizzle of Chimichurri sauce on the side.
3/ Accompany the Churrasco with traditional side dishes like grilled vegetables, rice, or roasted potatoes for a complete meal.
