Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds Skirt steak
• 0.5 cup Balsamic vinegar
• 0.25 cup Olive oil
• 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 3 Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 teaspoons Fresh rosemary, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 2

Place the skirt steak in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish, and pour the marinade over the steak. Ensure that the entire surface of the steak is coated.

Step 3

Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for best flavor.

Step 4

When ready to cook, remove the steak from the marinade and let it sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes. Discard the remaining marinade.

Step 5

Preheat a grill or cast-iron skillet over high heat until very hot. Lightly oil the grill grates or pan to prevent sticking.

Step 6

Cook the skirt steak for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust the cooking time based on your preferred doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature: 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare or 140°F (60°C) for medium.

Step 7

Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Step 8

Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips, and serve immediately. Pair with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or a simple salad.
