For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of grated fresh ginger to the marinade. If you don't have habanero hot sauce, you can substitute with another hot sauce of your choice, adjusting the amount to your preferred spice level. Skirt steak is best served medium-rare to medium. Overcooking will make it tough. Serve with a side of grilled vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.

Follow The Directions
01
StepIn a mixing bowl, whisk together the mango nectar, soy sauce, granulated garlic, and habanero hot sauce. (Prep time: 5 minutes)
02
StepPlace the skirt steak in a resealable bag or container and pour the marinade over it, ensuring the steak is fully submerged. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight, allowing the flavors to fully penetrate the meat. (Marinating time: 8+ hours)
03
StepPreheat an outdoor grill to high heat (approximately 450-500°F or 230-260°C) and lightly oil the grill grate to prevent sticking. (Prep time: 10 minutes)
04
StepRemove the steak from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off. Discard the used marinade.
05
StepGrill the skirt steak for 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium doneness, or until the internal temperature reaches 140°F (60°C) when measured with an instant-read thermometer. Adjust grilling time based on your desired level of doneness. (Cook time: 8-10 minutes)
06
StepRemove the grilled steak from the grill, tent loosely with foil, and let it rest for at least 2 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak. (Rest time: 2 minutes)
07
StepSlice the skirt steak thinly against the grain to maximize tenderness and serve immediately. Enjoy!
