Ingredients
Instructions
Whisk the olive oil, soy sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, cumin, and smoked paprika in a small bowl to create the marinade.
Place the skirt steak in a large Ziploc bag or glass dish and pour the marinade over it. Massage to coat and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 8 hours.
Remove the steak from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking to reach room temperature.
Remove steak from marinade and pat extremely dry with paper towels to ensure a proper sear. Discard excess marinade.
Heat a large cast iron skillet over high heat with 1 tablespoon of avocado oil until shimmering and slightly smoking.
Lay the steak in the pan and sear for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, developing a dark brown crust.
Rest the meat for 5-10 minutes. Slice thinly against the grain at a 45-degree angle. Garnish with flaky sea salt and cilantro.
