I was in Santa Monica a few years ago, where I ordered a chicken parmesan that featured a garlic, rosemary, and Marsala-spiked sauce; and I loved the subtle sweetness the wine added to the tomato.
For whatever reason, I thought of those flavors while brainstorming a quick skirt steak marinade, and this is what happened. Skirt steak is always great on the grill, and doesn't needs much help, but I loved how this came out. I can only wonder how much better it would have been if I’d actually let it marinate.
The plan was to prep this in the morning, and grill it for dinner after at least eight hours in the marinade. But, due to hunger-related circumstances beyond my control, it ended up being an early lunch. Even though it only soaked for a short time, it was still very nice, but hopefully you'll exercise a little more self-control. I hope you give this a try soon. Enjoy!
Ingredients for 4 portions:
1 1/2 pound skirt steak
2/3 cup Marsala wine
1/4 cup ketchup
1 tsp dried rosemary, or 1 tbsp fresh
1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
2 tsp kosher salt
6 cloves garlic, minced
- Marinate for 8 hours to overnight, and grill over high heat (brush grates with oil first, and wipe off excess marinade)
