Garlic Butter Brazilian Steak (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
→ Main Components
01 -
2 lbs skirt steak
02 -
Salt, to taste
03 -
Black pepper, to taste
→ Garlic Butter and Garnish
04 -
6 teaspoons garlic, minced
05 -
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
06 -
1/2 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
# Instructions:
01 -
Trim and cut the skirt steak to fit your skillet. Pat steak dry with paper towels and season both sides liberally with salt and black pepper.
02 -
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add a small amount of neutral oil. Sear steak slices for 2 to 3 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Remove steak from the skillet and let rest on a plate.
03 -
In a separate skillet over low heat, melt butter. Add minced garlic and stir continuously with a spatula until aromatic and golden, about 1 to 2 minutes. Immediately transfer garlic butter to a bowl to prevent burning.
04 -
Slice steak against the grain into thin strips. Arrange on a serving platter, drizzle generously with garlic butter, and scatter chopped fresh parsley over the top. Serve immediately.
# Notes:
01 -
Resting steak after cooking allows juices to redistribute, ensuring maximum tenderness.
02 -
Finely chop parsley just before serving to preserve freshness and color.
