# Ingredients:
→ Main Ingredients
01 -
1/2 cup parsley, finely chopped
02 -
6 tbsp butter
03 -
6 tsp minced garlic
04 -
Salt and pepper, as much as you like
05 -
2 pounds skirt steak
# Instructions:
01 -
Wipe the steak dry with paper towels, then sprinkle both sides generously with salt and pepper. Slice it into portions that will fit your pan.
02 -
Heat some oil in a big skillet over medium-high heat until it’s super hot. Lay the steak in and cook it for 2-3 minutes on each side if you want it medium-rare. Take the steak out and set it aside to relax for a bit.
03 -
Use a different skillet and set it to low heat. Toss in the butter to melt, then mix in the garlic. Keep stirring it around with a spatula so it lightly browns but doesn’t burn. When it’s done, take it off the stove and move it right into a small bowl so it doesn’t keep cooking.
04 -
Cut the steak into slices, making sure to go against the grain for tender pieces. Drizzle the garlic butter over them and toss some parsley on top. Serve while still hot.
# Notes:
01 -
This Brazilian-inspired steak with garlic butter packs tons of flavor and doesn’t take long—ready in just 15 minutes!
02 -
Garlic cooks fast! Take it off the heat early to avoid it turning bitter from burning.
03 -
Letting the steak warm up to room temperature before cooking helps it cook evenly and makes cutting against the grain easier for juicy slices.
