This is a great recipe that goes well with steak, chicken, or steamed veggies … I chose steak as I feel it brings out the best flavor with the chimichurri sauce. This is a very simple recipe with a lot of flavor. If you have left over sauce, you can jar it and use if for future recipes.
Ingredients
Steak
4 skirt steaks about 6 ounces each
2 Tablespoons of grass-fed butter
salt and pepper
Chimichurri Sauce
1 c Cilantro, packed
1 c Parsley, packed
3 cloves Garlic
1 lime, juiced
3 tbsp Red Wine Vinegar
½ tsp Red Pepper Flakes
2 tsp Salt
¾ c Olive Oil
Directions:
Steak:
In a large skillet place butter and allow to melt. Then add the steak and cook over high heat. Add the steaks side by side and cook about 3 to 4 minutes or until thoroughly browned on one side. Turn and continue cooking until lightly browned, about 3 minutes for medium rare.
Sauce:
Combine all the ingredients in a food processor. Pulse for about 10-15 seconds until just combined. you do not want to over pulse and turn this into a smooth sauce. Transfer to a container and set aside.
Top Chimichurri sauce on the steak and serve with Cilantro Sweet Potato Fries ….
Enjoy!
