Grilled Skirt Steak

This grilled skirt steak is a fantastic option for a quick, flavourful dinner that fits perfectly into a diabetes-friendly diet. By focusing on high-quality protein and vibrant seasonings like cracked black peppercorns and sea salt, you can achieve a deeply savoury crust without the need for sugary marinades. The high-heat grilling method ensures the steak remains juicy and tender, making it an ideal choice for a healthy midweek meal or a relaxed weekend barbecue.

Skirt steak is a lean cut that absorbs seasonings beautifully, especially when paired with a zesty, herb-based accompaniment like chimichurri. Serving this dish with a fresh green salad or roasted Mediterranean vegetables provides a balanced, low-carbohydrate meal that is as nutritious as it is satisfying. It is a brilliant example of how simple, fresh ingredients can create a sophisticated and heart-healthy dinner for the whole family.

How to make Grilled Skirt Steak

Prepare grill for cooking over direct heat with hot charcoal (high heat for gas; see Grilling Procedureepi:recipelink.</epi:recipelink>

While grill is heating, coarsely crush peppercorns with a mortar and pestle or by wrapping them in a kitchen towel and pressing with bottom of a heavy skillet.

Pat steaks dry and sprinkle both sides with salt and crushed pepper, pressing to help adhere. Grill steaks on lightly oiled grill rack (covered only if using a gas grill), turning over once and moving around to avoid flare-ups if necessary, 6 to 8 minutes total for medium-rare. Transfer steaks to a cutting board and let stand, loosely covered with foil, 5 minutes. Thinly slice steaks diagonally.
