Ingredients

  • 1 pound skirt steak
  • 1/4 cup cilantro minced
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • 2 tablespoons gluten-free soy sauce or coconut aminos
  • 1 tablespoon butter or butter flavored coconut oil if dairy-free
  • 4 teaspoons lime juice

Instructions

  • Dry the steak well and season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a cast iron skillet over high heat until just beginning to smoke. Add a teaspoon of oil to the pan and then add the steak, cook until well browned on both sides, turning often, about 8-10 minutes total. Remove steak from pan and set aside to rest.
  • In the same pan, add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, another minute. Add coconut aminos and butter and cook together another two minutes, adding water if needed to thin the sauce. Off heat, add lime juice and cilantro. Adjust seasoning to taste with salt and pepper. 
  • Slice steak against the grain. Plate and top with the sauce.
