Skirt Steak

Description

Skirt steak is a flavorful, thin-cut steak prized for its rich, beefy taste and tender texture when cooked properly. Cut from the plate section of the cow, it features beautiful marbling and a coarse grain that makes it ideal for marinades and quick, high-heat cooking.

Perfect for grilling, pan-searing, or broiling, skirt steak cooks quickly and should be sliced thin across the grain for maximum tenderness. Its bold flavor makes it a favorite for fajitas, tacos, stir-fries, or steak salads.
