Grab 2 lbs of skirt steak and cut it into four pieces that are roughly 6 to 8 oz.

Use a jakarding tool to punch the steak about 10 to 12 times to tenderize it.

Liberally season both sides of the steaks with salt.

Combine 75 g of oil, 15 g of soy sauce, 2 chipotle chilies in adobo, 25 g of garlic, 5 g of oregano, 5 g of coriander, 15 g of smoked paprika, 5 g of cumin, and 5 to 7 g of Mexican bullion in a blender to make the marinade.

Add 10 g of ground black pepper, 25 g of fresh cilantro, 60 g of lime juice, and 150 g of orange juice to the blender and blend until smooth.

Place the seasoned steak in a freezer bag and pour the marinade over it, tossing to coat.

Refrigerate the marinated steak overnight for best results.

Make pico de gallo by dicing 300 g of tomatoes, rinsing and dicing 1 medium large onion, and dicing 30 g of jalapeno, then mix together in a bowl.
