Ingredients
- 7 garlic cloves, peeled
- 1 cup fresh parsley leaves
- 1 cup fresh cilantro leaves
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus 3 tablespoons
- 3 pounds skirt steak
- freshly ground black pepper
Directions
- In a food processor, pulse the garlic until minced. Set aside 1 teaspoon. To the garlic remaining in the processor, add the parsley, cilantro, 1 teaspoon of the salt, and a few grinds of pepper. Pulse until chopped. With the motor running, add the lemon juice, then 1 cup of the oil, in a steady stream. Pour into a bowl, cover, and refrigerate.
- Cut the steak into 1-inch strips. Place in a plastic bag with the remaining 3 tablespoons of oil, the remaining salt, the reserved minced garlic, and a generous grind of pepper. Seal and refrigerate 1 hour.
- Soak bamboo skewers in water for 30 minutes. Heat broiler. Thread the meat on the skewers. Broil for 2 to 3 minutes per side. Serve at room temperature with the sauce.
Quick Tip

Grass-fed beef is lower in fat and thus cooks faster than ordinary beef. Many chefs and butchers advise cooking it at a lower
temperature.

FRESH PICK

Although the turnip has been grown for more than 4,000 years and was one of the first foods to be cultivated in Europe, it
is currently underappreciated: It keeps well, takes to almost any cooking method, and has a subtly flavored, tasty flesh.
