Fajitas
Marinated skirt steak grilled over high heat and sliced thin, served sizzling with peppers and onions.
Why It Works
Skirt steak's loose grain structure absorbs marinades deeply; extreme high heat on a flat-top or grill creates char in minutes before the thin cut overcooks; slicing against the grain ensures tenderness.
