How To Make skirt steak with anchovies and lime

Step 1

Season the steaks with salt and pepper and rub the lime juice on them. Let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.

Step 2

Heat the oil in a large skillet. Once hot, sear the steak on each side about 2 minutes per side for medium rare. Set aside and keep warm.
Step 3

Add the scallions, anchovies, and garlic to the same pan. Cook 30 seconds, add the beef broth, and cook about 1 minute.
Step 4

Stir in the cilantro and serve the sauce over the steak.
