QUICK SAUTEED SKIRT STEAK

Steps:

• Brush the steak with the Worcestershire, and marinate in a pyrex dish for about 15 minutes.
• You can leave on the counter or refrigerate.
• Lightly pat the steaks dry with paper towels, and season well with the salt.
• Heat half of the oil in a nonstick or heavy skillet, over medium-high heat until hot.
• Saute half the steaks (or less so as not to crowd), about 3 minutes on each side (for medium-rare).
• Cook in batches, with additional oil, until all the steaks are done.
• Transfer to platter, loosely cover with foil, and let stand about 5 minutes before serving.

SAUTEED SKIRT STEAK

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Brush steak with Worcestershire and marinate 15 minutes.
• Sauté steaks:
• Lightly pat steaks dry and season well with salt. Heat 1/2 tablespoon of oil in each of 2 (12-inch) nonstick or heavy skillets over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté steaks in batches, without crowding, 3 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Transfer steaks to a platter and let stand, loosely covered, 5 minutes.

15-MINUTE GRILLED SKIRT STEAK WITH PESTO BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat a large cast-iron grill pan over high heat for 2 minutes. Cut the skirt steak into 4 even pieces, rub with half of the oil and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Cook, turning once, until charred on both sides and at the desired doneness, 6 to 10 minutes for medium-rare (depending on thickness).
• Meanwhile, whisk together the pesto, butter and a pinch of salt and pepper in a small bowl.
• Trim the ends of the asparagus. Toss the asparagus with the remaining oil and a large pinch of salt and pepper. Transfer the steaks to a cutting board to rest for a few minutes. Working in batches if necessary, place the asparagus in a single layer on the grill pan and cook, turning once, until charred in spots and crisp-tender, about 2 minutes.
• Divide the steaks and asparagus among 4 plates; top each steak with a dollop of the pesto butter. Serve immediately.
