  • 1.5 lbs of grass fed skirt steak

  • 1 tsp Salt

  • 1 tsp [ Cocoa Powder (Unsweetened)

  • 1/2 tsp Smoked Paprika

  • 1tsp Pepper

  • 1/4 tsp Cinnamon

Instructions

1. Pat dry steak

2. Combine all ingredients to make the "Rub"

3. Completely cover both sides of the steak in the rub. Place in a covered dish or plastic bag and leave for at least one hour, but preferably overnight.

Now Time to Cook

1. Preheat your oven to 400*

2. Pan Selection - I always go for my cast-iron skillet for steak (when cooking indoors).

3. Lightly Oil the Pan, I am using Avocado Oil.

4. Sear the steak for 1-2 minutes on each side.

5. Put Cast-iron skillet pan in the oven and cook for another 5-7 minutes, until your desired temperature.

*If you’re like me and enjoy your steak at medium rare, the internal temperature will be 135 degrees Fahrenheit.
