Skirt Steaks with Red Onion Mojo

This high-protein skirt steak recipe is an exceptional way to prepare a flavourful cut of beef, using a dual-cooking method that ensures perfect results. The process begins with a slow roast in a fragrant coriander and cumin marinade, which tenderises the meat while infusing it with deep, savoury notes. Finishing the steaks in a hot frying pan creates a beautifully crisp, caramelised crust that contrasts perfectly with the succulent interior.

Ideal for a weekend dinner or a sophisticated gathering, this dish is served with a zingy red onion mojo that cuts through the richness of the beef. The overnight marinating time makes this an excellent make-ahead option, requiring only a quick sear before serving. For a complete meal, pair the steaks with a side of citrus-dressed leaves or some simple roasted seasonal vegetables.
