Number Of Ingredients 12

FOR SAUCE
1 clove large garlic clove
1/2 tsp salt
1 c coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 c olive oil
4 Tbsp lemon juice (fresh is best)
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
FOR STEAK OR CHICKEN
1 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
2 lb skirt steak, cut crosswise into 3- to 4-inch pieces

Steps:

1. Make sauce: Mince garlic and mash to a paste with salt. Transfer to a blender and add remaining sauce ingredients, then blend until smooth.
2. Grill steak: Stir together cumin, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Pat steak dry, then rub both sides of pieces with cumin mixture. Heat an oiled well-seasoned ridged grill pan over high heat until hot but not smoking, then grill steak in 2 batches, turning over occasionally, about 2 minutes per batch for thin pieces or 6 to 8 minutes per batch for thicker pieces (medium-rare). Serve steak drizzled with sauce.
