Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/4 pounds skirt steak, cut into 4 pieces
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3/4 cup water
1 pound scallions (3 or 4 bunches), trimmed to 7 inches long
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice, or to taste
Garnish: lime wedges

Steps:

  • Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 200°F.
  • Pat steaks dry and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Heat oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until foam subsides, then cook steaks, turning over once, 5 to 7 minutes total for medium-rare. Transfer steaks to a plate and keep warm in oven.
  • Discard fat from skillet, then add water and bring to a boil, scraping up brown bits from bottom of skillet. Add scallions and remaining tablespoon butter, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook, tightly covered, over moderate heat until scallions are tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer scallions with tongs to a platter and put steaks on top.
  • Pour any steak juices accumulated on plate into juices in skillet and boil until slightly thickened. Add lime juice and pour sauce over steaks and scallions.
