- 2 red onions, sliced 1 inch thick
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Crunchy sea salt to finish
Steak Marinade

Steps
Beef and Broccoli with Grilled Skirt Steak
- Pat the skirt steak dry with paper towels.
- Allow to marinate for 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, clean and peel the red onions.
- Slicing against the grain, cut them into 1 inch rings.
- Clean the broccolini and put them into a large bowl with the onion rings.
- Dress them with sesame oil, season with salt and pepper to taste, and set aside.
- Preheat the grill on high heat.
- After the steak is marinated, wipe off the marinade and season the steak with all 1½ tbsp (11 g) of black pepper on both sides and salt to taste. It is very important to grill the steak over high heat so there is a nice char and a quick sear, just like cooking in a wok. Skirt steak is very thin so it cooks really fast; each side will only take 90 seconds to 2 minutes for medium-rare.
- Meanwhile, on the other side of the grill, char the red onion rings.
- When both sides are charred, but the onion is still raw, place these into a salad bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and the carry-over heat will create steam to finish cooking them.
- Lightly grill the broccolini so they are still green and crunchy.
- Allow the skirt steak to rest for a couple of minutes before slicing.
- Set them on top of the red onion rings and the grilled broccolini.
- Finish with sea salt on the steak.
- Serve with Black Pepper Sauce.
Steak Marinade
- In a blender, combine ginger, green onion, garlic, soy sauce, oyster sauce and cooking oil and blend until smooth.
- Pour this mixture into a shallow bowl and rub all over the steak.
