- Serves: 4
- Prep Time: 5 min
- Cook Time: 15 min
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lbs skirt steak
- 2 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 pint cherry tomatoes, 10-12 oz
- 6 garlic cloves, roughly chopped or thinly sliced
- 1 (4 oz) ball Burrata, torn into bite size pieces
- Flaky salt, to taste
- Freshly ground pepper, to taste
Method
- Preheat grill on high for 15 minutes.
- Pat the steak dry with a paper towel and season each side with 1 teaspoon kosher salt.
- Once the grates of the grill are smoking, set steak on hottest part of the grill and cook for 2 minutes on each side undisturbed. Continue cooking and flipping each minute until internal temperature of the steak reads 140°F with an instant read thermometer. Transfer it to a plate and allow to rest. **
- Meanwhile in a medium sized skillet, heat olive oil over medium high heat. Add in cherry tomatoes and allow to cook for 5 minutes undisturbed. Add in garlic along with remaining ½ teaspoon salt and stir to combine. Allow to cook for 5 more minutes until tomatoes are blistered and garlic is golden brown.
- Thinly slice the steak against the grain and transfer to a plate. Top with blistered tomatoes, burrata, flaky salt and freshly ground pepper. Serve immediately.
**Alternatively you can cook the steak in a large cast iron skillet over high heat. Preheat skillet until smoking. Add a little olive oil to coat the pan. Add in the steak and cook for 2 minutes on each side undisturbed. Continue cooking and flipping each minute until internal temp reads 140°F. Transfer to a plate and allow to rest.
