Herb Marinated Grilled Steak

After a long night of good fun and great friends, nothing is better than a great meal with the family. So I was excited when hubby was able to entice my mother and father to come over for Sunday dinner. Hubby is the grill master and despite an extended weekend he hadn't spent any time on the grill. In the summer, he typically lives on the grill. There is absolutely nothing he can't accomplish on that thing. Want it cooked low and slow? He can do it. Want it seared? You got it. Perfectly cooked fish? Yup, he can do that too. Outdoor cooking is not my domain, but what he cooks is so good it makes me reconsider.

So this Sunday we were graced with steak. We don't eat steak often, so when we do it's a real treat. Unfortunately, the last two times we were out and I ordered skirt steak I was disappointed. Well, disappointed no more...hubby to the rescue.

Herb Marinated Grilled Skirt

Ingredients

1/4 cup Parsley
1/4 cup Oregano
1/4 cup Bail
2 tsp Salt
2 tsp Pepper
5 cloves of Garlic
3 Onion slices
1/2 tsp of sugar
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 tsp Worcestershire
3 lbs Skirt Steak

Directions
Combine herbs, garlic, onions, olive oil, sugar, Worcestershire, salt and pepper in a blender. Rub mix onto steak and let it marinate for at least an hour.

Place mesquite wood logs in the grill and set it on fire. Let the grill heat to 500 degrees. If you are applying the steak directly to the flame please make sure you turn it every 2 to 3 minutes. Direct heat will allow the steak to sear which will lock in all of the flavor and keep it moist.

Cook the steak on the grill for 10 minutes. 5 minutes if you prefer your steak rare.
