Hanger Steak

Hanger steak is similar to skirt steak with a slightly more robust flavor. Here it is marinated in an umami packed sauce and then cooked quickly over high heat. Serve with a light green salad to cut the richness of the steak. I like to dress greens with a bit of grapefruit zest, vinegar, olive oil, salt, pepper, and then add a couple of grapefruit segments for a refreshing and bright side.

  • Combine all ingredients except steak in a large ziplock bag or glass bowl. Add the steak and coat evenly. Marinate for 30 minutes at room temperature, or refrigerate and marinate for up to 8 hours.
  • Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and then rub with a bit of avocado oil to prevent sticking. Lay the steak on the prepared sheet and broil on high for 4-5 minutes per side. Remove from oven and allow the steaks to rest for 10 minutes before slicing against the grain.
