STEAKS IN GARLIC LIME MARINADE (PALOMILLA)

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients except for the steaks in a food processor or blender. Process until the mixture is a smooth liquid paste.
• On a plate or in a zip top bag, combine 1/2 of the marinade with the steaks, making sure the meat is well coated. Let sit in the refrigerator for 1/2 hour. Reserve the remaining marinade.
• Grill the steaks over high heat, 2-3 minutes per side, basting if desired with the remaining marinade.
• Remove to a serving dish, brush with any remaining marinade, and serve.

LIME-SOAKED, CUMIN-CRUSTED SKIRT STEAK

Steps:

• Place the steak in a shallow dish and pour the lime juice over it. Cover the dish and let it stand in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to 1 hour, turning occasionally.
• Light up a fire in your grill.
• In a small bowl, combine all the rub ingredients and mix well. Remove the steak from the marinade, pat dry with paper towels, and rub it all over with the spice rub, pressing gently to be sure it sticks.
• When the fire has died down and the coals are hot (you can hold your hand 5 inches from the grill surface for 1 to 2 seconds), place the steak on the grill and cook until well-seared on one side, about 4 minutes. Turn and continue to cook to the desired doneness, about 4 minutes more for rare. To check for doneness: Make a 1/4-inch cut in the thickest part of the meat and take a peek; it should be slightly less done than you like it. Remove the steak from the heat, cover it loosely with foil, and allow it to rest for 5 minutes while you make the relish.
• In a medium bowl, combine all the relish ingredients and mix well.
• Slice the steak as thin as possible against the grain and serve with the relish. Enjoy!
• Note* You may substitute flank steak, or round steak for the skirt.
