  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: Serves 4

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 medium cloves garlic
  • 1.5 lb skirt steak (trimmed and cut into 4 pieces)
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil (or vegetable oil)
  • 2 oz unsalted butter

  1. Peel and smash the garlic cloves with a chef’s knife, then mince finely.
  2. Pat the skirt steak dry and season generously with salt and pepper.
