Skirt Steak Fajitas Marinade Recipe.

It is a wonderful recipe for a dinner party. One pound of skirt steak will feed four people, so just scale up the meat if you want more servings. This marinade recipe is enough for 12 1-pound steaks. If making one steak, freeze the rest of the marinade to use later.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups pineapple juice
1 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce
1 Tablespoon chopped garlic
2 3/4 Tablespoon Brown sugar
9 ounces orange juice
1 3/4 ounces lime juice
1 3/4 cups water
1 3/4 Tablespoons kosher salt

Instructions

Mix all marinade ingredients. Set aside a portion of marinade to drizzle on top of your meat after cooking.
Marinate skirt steak in four ounces (1/2 cup) of the marinade for one hour. (For every pound of meat, use four ounces of marinade.) If using a larger thicker flank steak, marinade for 2 hours.
Remove meat from marinade and grill on a hot grill until medium/medium rare or your doneness preference. Keep in mind that residual heat will continue to cook the meat as it rests.
Remove from grill and let rest for 10 minutes.
Cut meat against the grain, drizzle with some reserved marinade and serve with your favorite accompaniments like a “build your own fajita taco.”
Serve alongside grilled vegetables. We like sweet yellow onions, red and green peppers, and roma tomatoes.
At the restaurant, we also serve our fajitas with warmed homemade tortillas, black beans, Spanish rice, pico de gallo and guacamole.

Notes

This fajitas marinade recipe is a restaurant recipe used to prepare steak fajitas to feed a crowd. It makes six cups of marinade, or enough to marinade 12 steaks.

I only cooked one steak. And used only 1/2 cup of the marinade. I simply placed the the remainder of the marinade in a freezable container to use for later fajita recipes.

For flank steak, marinade for two hours.

For skirt steak, marinade for 1 hour.
