  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • coarse salt to taste
  • 3 pounds skirt steak (about 3 long steaks)
  • 3 tablespoons finely chopped garlic
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice, or to taste
  • warm tortillas
  • rajas con crema orcebollitas asadas
  • fresh tomato salsa

Preparation If necessary, trim steaks, leaving some fat. In a shallow dish rub steaks with garlic and oil. Marinate steaks, covered and chilled, at least 30 minutes and up to 1 day. Prepare grill. Season steaks generously with coarse salt and grill on a rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals 2 to 3 minutes on each side for medium-rare. (Alternatively, steaks may be broiled on rack of a broiler pan under a preheated broiler 3 inches from heat about 4 minutes on each side.) Transfer steaks to a cutting board and drizzle with lime juice. Let steaks stand, uncovered, 5 to 10 minutes and with a sharp knife cut diagonally across grain into thin slices. Serve steak with accompaniments.
