Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Ribeye steak or sirloin steak
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 large Garlic cloves
- 1 cup, chopped Fresh parsley
- 1 cup, chopped Fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoons Fresh oregano (or dried)
- 2 tablespoons Red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Red chili flakes
- 1 tablespoon Water
- 1.5 tablespoons Lemon juice
Instructions
Season the steaks on both sides with salt and black pepper. Let them rest at room temperature while you prepare the chimichurri sauce.
To make the chimichurri sauce, finely chop the garlic cloves, parsley, cilantro, and oregano, then combine them in a medium-sized bowl.
Add red wine vinegar, red chili flakes, water, lemon juice, and olive oil to the herb mixture. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Let the chimichurri sauce sit for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Heat a grill or skillet over high heat. Lightly grease the surface with a small amount of olive oil.
Cook each steak for approximately 3-5 minutes per side, depending on your preferred level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer if desired (130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium, or 150°F for medium-well).
Once cooked, remove the steaks from the heat and let them rest for 5 minutes so the juices redistribute.
Serve the steaks hot, topped generously with the chimichurri sauce. Pair with a side of roasted potatoes or fresh salad for a complete meal.
