Description

Skirt steak is marinated in hoisin sauce and topped with blue cheese to make this delicious dinner.

Ingredients

1/2 cup hoisin sauce
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon diced garlic
1 tablespoon sweet chilli sauce (such as Mae Ploy®)
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger root
1 (2 pound) beef skirt steak
1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese

Directions

1 Whisk hoisin sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, garlic, chili sauce, and ginger together in a bowl until marinade is smooth; pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add skirt steak, coat with marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours.
2 Remove steak from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard remaining marinade.
3 Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
4 Cook steak until it starts to firm and is reddish-pink and juicy in the center, 6 to 8 minutes per side. Sprinkle blue cheese over the steak and cook until cheese just starts to melt, 2 to 3 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the steak should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C).
