Posted by Christi FeeterMonday 19 May, 2008
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
- 1 tbsp. of Forty Oaks Farm “Smoked Chipotle” salt bouquet
- 1 Forty Oaks Farm Beef Blend chopped finely
- 1 can of organic pureed tomatoes
- 1 tbsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 2 lbs. Beef Skirt Steak, rinsed and patted dry
- Fajitas Fixings
1. In a 9- by 13-in. baking dish or a large bowl, mix onion, chipotle salt with tomatoes, and oil. Add beef (cut in half if too big to fit) and rub marinade onto both sides. Cover and let stand at room temperature 25 minutes.
2. Prepare a gas or charcoal grill for direct, high heat (you can hold your hand 1 to 2 in. above the cooking grate only 2 to 3 seconds; visit our Grilling Essential section for complete instructions). Place steak on oiled cooking grate; cover gas grill. Cook, turning once with a wide spatula, until browned on the outside and done to your liking in the center (cut to test), about 6 minutes total for rare (reddish pink), or 8 to 10 minutes total for medium-rare (pink).
3. Transfer meat to a cutting board, loosely tent with foil, and let rest 10 minutes. Slice the steak across the grain into thin strips and serve with Fajitas Fixings.
