Steps:
- Place steaks in shallow baking dish.
- Pour orange, lemon and lime juices over steaks.
- Add garlic and turn steaks to coat.
- Marinate steaks, covered, for 4 hours or overnight in refrigerator.
- Heat oil in a heavy skillet (I use cast iron) over high heat until almost smoking.
- Season with salt& pepper, and cayenne.
- Fry steaks until brown on both sides, turning once, about 4 minutes.
- Transfer to plates and serve.
- You can grill if you prefer.
Tips:
- Choose the right cut of steak: Flank steak, skirt steak, and hanger steak are all good choices for this recipe. These cuts are relatively thin and have a good amount of marbling, which will help them stay tender and juicy during cooking.
- Marinate the steak for at least 30 minutes: The marinade will help to tenderize the steak and infuse it with flavor. You can use a store-bought marinade or make your own using olive oil, soy sauce, garlic, and herbs.
- Cook the steak over medium-high heat: This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the steak while keeping the inside tender and juicy.
- Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
- Serve the steak with your favorite sides: Grilled vegetables, roasted potatoes, or a simple salad are all good choices.
Conclusion:
South American marinated cedar-planked steak is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout. The marinade helps to tenderize the steak and infuse it with flavor, while the cedar plank imparts a smoky flavor that is simply irresistible. Serve the steak with your favorite sides and enjoy!
