Ingredients
  

  • 1 skirt steak
  • 1 sour orange (naranja agria) or equal parts lime juice and orange juice
  • 2 garlic cloves mashed
  • 2 tbsp sofrito
  • ½ tsp adobo
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp cumin
  • ¼ tsp oregano

Chimichurri

  • 1 lime
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 bunch fresh parsley
  • ½ bunch fresh cilantro
  • ¼ tsp oregano
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Marinate the steak by mixing naranja agria, garlic, sofrito, adobo, salt, cumin, and oregano in a bowl. Add the skirt steak and coat it well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or overnight for maximum flavor).
  • Finely chop the parsley, cilantro, and garlic. Mix them with lime juice, red wine vinegar, oregano, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Let the chimichurri sit for 15–20 minutes.
  • Heat your grill or a pan over medium-high heat. Take the steak out of the marinade, pat it dry, and cook for 3–5 minutes per side, or until it’s done to your liking. Let it rest for a few minutes.
  • Slice the steak against the grain and spoon chimichurri on top. Serve and enjoy!
