Skirt steak is a long, thin, ribbon-like cut that comes from the belly just below the rib. The steak’s muscle fibers are visible, giving it a “pleated” look that explains its name. Skirt steak is cut from a muscle that gets plenty of exercise, so it’s fairly lean and has excellent beefy flavor. You’ll see muscle fibers running across the meat, and these give the steak its distinctive chew.
