Prep 10 m Cook 8 m Ready In 2 h 18 m
1.Cut skirt steaks into about 3 or 4 smaller pieces so it's easier to fit them into marinade dish.
2.Whisk orange juice, lime juice, olive oil, garlic, salt, cumin, pepper, oregano, and cayenne pepper together in a large bowl.
Place skirt steak pieces, 1 at a time, into the marinade to thoroughly coat them. Add sliced onions and toss with the meat.
3.Transfer mixture and marinade to a resealable plastic bag. Squeeze out air, seal bag, and place on a dish. Refrigerate 2 to 3 hours.
4.Transfer pieces of meat onto paper towel-lined rimmed sheet pan to drain for a couple of minutes.
5.Cook over hot coals. Grill first side 3 to 4 minutes.
Turn and grill second side until internal temperature is about 125 degrees F (53 degrees C).
Look for a shiny glossy surface indicating the meat juice is coming to the surface; this indicates the meat is just about done.
Transfer to a plate and allow meat to rest a few minutes.
6.Slice into 1/2-inch slices and arrange on a serving plate. Spoon accumulated juices over the meat.
Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with coarse salt and chopped cilantro. Serve with lime wedges.
