Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Begin by preparing your ingredients for the Garlic Butter Brazilian Steak. Chop fresh parsley for garnish, mince enough garlic to yield about a tablespoon, and cut your butter into small cubes for quick melting. Trim the skirt steak if necessary to fit comfortably in your skillet, ensuring it’s ready for a perfect sear.
  2. Now it’s time to season the skirt steak. Pat the steak dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture, enhancing the sear. Generously season both sides of the steak with salt and pepper.
  3. Heat a large skillet over high heat and add the seasoned skirt steak. Sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until a golden crust forms. Remove the steak and allow it to rest.
  4. In the same hot skillet, reduce the heat to low and add the cubed butter. As it melts, add the minced garlic and stir gently, cooking just until the garlic is golden, about 30 seconds.
  5. Once the skirt steak has rested, slice it against the grain into thin strips. Arrange the steak slices on a warm plate, drizzle the garlic butter over the top, and sprinkle chopped parsley.

Notes

Keep a close eye on the garlic while cooking; it can burn quickly. Always let the steak rest after cooking for optimum juiciness.
