Time 3h3m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2/3 cup sherry wine vinegar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
4 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano leaves
3 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons minced shallots
3/4 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 (1 3/4 to 2-pound) skirt steak

Steps:

  • In the bowl of a food processor, combine the olive oil, sherry vinegar, lemon juice, parsley, basil, oregano, garlic and shallots. Pulse until well blended but do not puree. Add 1/4 teaspoon of the black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and the crushed red pepper. Remove 1 cup of the chimichurri sauce from the processor and transfer to a non-reactive bowl, cover with plastic wrap and reserve at room temperature for up to 6 hours. (If cooking steak another day, refrigerate sauce and return to room temperature before serving.)
  • Season the steak with 1 teaspoon of the kosher salt on each side, as well as 1/4 teaspoon of the black pepper per side and place in a large, resealable plastic bag. Add the remaining chimichurri sauce from the processor. Seal bag and refrigerate the steak for at least 2 and up to 4 hours.
  • Preheat a grill to medium heat.
  • Once the steak has finished marinating, remove it from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for 30 minutes. Brush the excess chimichurri sauce off the steak and set the steak over the hot grill. Cook for 6 minutes on the first side. Rotate the steak 45 degrees, and cook another 6 minutes. Turn the steak over and continue to cook until the steak is done, about 6 to 8 minutes for medium-rare. Once cooked, lay the steak on a clean cutting board, and allow it to rest for 5 to 7 minutes before slicing across the grain into 2-inch wide strips. Serve with crusty bread and the reserved chimichurri sauce.

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 ½ lb skirt steak, trimmed of excess fat and cut into 3 pieces
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
kosher salt, to taste
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
8 cloves garlic
2 small shallots, halved lengthwise
1 jalapeño, stemmed, halved, seeds and ribs removed
1 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
¾ cup fresh cilantro
½ cup olive oil
¼ cup fresh oregano leaf, packed
¼ cup red wine vinegar

Steps:

  • Heat a large cast-iron skillet over high heat until it begins to smoke.
  • Brush the steaks with the vegetable oil and season liberally with salt and pepper.
  • Place the steak in the skillet, working in batches as needed. Cook, flipping once halfway through, until charred on the outside and medium-rare inside, 4-8 minutes, depending on the thickness of the steak. If working in batches, wipe out the skillet between batches.
  • Transfer the steaks to a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-high. Add the garlic, shallots, and jalapeño and cook, turning as needed, until blackened in spots and softened, about 8 minutes.

  • To serve, cut the steaks against the grain into ¼-inch thick slices. Transfer to a serving platter or plates and spoon the charred chimichurri over the top.

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 1/2 pounds skirt steak
1 tablespoon olive oil, plus more for grill pan
2 cloves garlic, crushed
3 sprigs flat-leaf parsley
2 large ripe tomatoes, cut into wedges, for serving (optional)
1 small red onion, thinly sliced, for serving (optional)
1 bunch watercress, washed, dried, and coarsely chopped, for serving (optional)
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup olive oil
1/4 cup white vinegar
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 small bunch flat-leaf parsley, leaves removed and chopped
1 small white onion, finely chopped (about 1/4 cup)
1 tablespoon smoked Spanish paprika
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Prepare chimichurri sauce: Combine all chimichurri ingredients in the bowl of a food processor. Process 1 minute; season with salt and pepper. Chimichurri sauce may be stored in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
  • Prepare steak: Pound skirt steak flat with a meat pounder. Transfer steaks to a shallow dish. Add 1 tablespoon oil, garlic, and parsley; turn steaks to coat. Marinate in refrigerator at least 2 hours and up to overnight.
  • Preheat a grill pan. Brush grill pan with oil. Remove steaks from marinade, and season with salt and pepper. Place steaks on grill, and cook 2 to 3 minutes. Turn, and continue cooking to desired degree of doneness. Transfer steaks to a cutting board; let stand 10 minutes.
  • Thinly slice steaks crosswise. Divide evenly between 4 plates and drizzle with chimichurri sauce. Serve with tomato wedges, onion, and watercress.

Tips:

  • Choose a skirt steak that is at least 1 inch thick for the best results.
  • Make sure to score the steak against the grain before cooking to help it cook evenly and tenderize it.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when searing the steak. This will prevent it from cooking evenly.
  • Let the steak rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing it. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the steak, making it more tender and flavorful.
  • Serve the skirt steak with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables, roasted potatoes, or a simple salad.

Conclusion:

Skirt steak is a delicious and versatile cut of meat that can be cooked in a variety of ways. This recipe for skirt steak with charred chimichurri is a great way to enjoy this flavorful steak. The chimichurri sauce is a perfect complement to the steak, adding a bright and herbaceous flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit at your next barbecue or dinner party.
