Method

Steak Preparation

Marinate the Skirt Steak

In a bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. Add the skirt steak and marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Charbroil the Steak

Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated skirt steak for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until desired doneness. Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.

Mojo de Ajo Sauce Preparation

Make the Mojo de Ajo Sauce

In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the garlic cloves and olive oil. Cook until the garlic is golden and fragrant, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.

Shrimp Preparation

Cook the Shrimp

In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Once hot, add the shrimp. Season with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until the shrimp are pink and opaque. Remove from heat.

Assembly

Assemble the Dish

On a serving platter, place the sliced skirt steak. Top with cooked shrimp and drizzle generously with Mojo de Ajo sauce. Garnish with whole green onions and serve with guacamole on the side.
