Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb skirt steak
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 4 cloves of garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper optional for spice
  • Substitutions: You can use flank steak instead of skirt steak. For a gluten-free option substitute soy sauce with tamari.

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, paprika, black pepper, salt, and crushed red pepper (if using).
  2. Marinate the Steak: Place the skirt steak in a resealable bag or shallow dish, and pour the marinade over it. Make sure it's well-coated. Marinate for at least 15 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the fridge for deeper flavor).
  3. Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
  4. Cook the Steak: Remove the steak from the marinade and place it in the air fryer basket. Cook for 8 minutes for medium-rare, flipping halfway through. Adjust the time if you prefer a different doneness.
  5. Rest the Meat: Once cooked, remove the steak from the air fryer and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This step is crucial to ensure the juices redistribute.
  6. Slice and Serve: Cut the skirt steak against the grain into thin slices. Enjoy it with your favorite sides or in tacos!
