It used to be that marinating was only for tougher cuts of meat, now I like to marinate everything. Love to add a zap of flavor to chicken, fish and beef. Today, the old rule applies because we're using a skirt steak and it's typically a tougher cut of meat, but perfect for a quick dinner. Today's recipe is so versatile you can throw it on a bed of rice, put it on a bun or in a tortilla.

What You'll Need:

1 1/2 pounds skirt steak
2 limes
4 garlic cloves, grated
1/2 cup of low sodium soy sauce
1 Tbsp honey
1 inch long ginger section, chopped
1 bunch green onions (white and green),
sliced in 1/2 inch diagonal pieces.
2 Tbsp vegetable oil

Putting It All Together:

in small mixing bowl combine
low sodium soy sauce, juice of limes,
ginger,garlic, honey and sliced green onions.

place steaks in zip lock baggie and
add marinade. turn bag a couple of
times to mix well and set aside for
30 minutes.

preheat grill or indoor grill pan

cook skirt steaks about six minutes
on each side. remove from heat and
let rest 5 minutes. slice thinnly
across the grain.

pour the marinade from the bag
into a small sauce pan, heat
through and use as a sauce for meat.

serve with rice, rice noodles
on a bun, in a tortilla, a top
of a salad with mandarin orange
slices and sesame oil, sometimes
I throw a chopped up nappa cabbage
with shredded carrots and onions
in a sauce pan till wilted and use
that as a bed for my skirt steak
or a million other ways...
