A flavorful combination of red chile & cilantro in this Argentian chimichurri sauce. Skirt steak is popular in Argentina, if you can't find Skirt steak, you can substitute flat iron or flank steak. It is best to grill the steak to medium or medium rare. This comes from the Williams Sonoma Latin Cookbook. I am posting for ZWT 7; South America.It is said that in the mid 1800s, an Englishman and bon vivant, Jimmy Curry arrived in Argentina, He quickly fell in love with the aroma and taste of the roasted meats and set about to create a spicy accompaniment to show his appreciation for the tasty barbecue. He gathered spices such as chili pepper, sweet red pepper, tomatoes, onions and garlic, and combined them with rosemary, oregano, thyme and salt.The sauce caught on quickly, and today has become the traditional sauce of Argentina.

The chimichurri is served & sold at many of the restaurants all over in Miami. It is one of things that caught on - big time. I am one of those people who doesn't like basil so I leave it out of the recipe. Inactive prep time: 2 hours 35 minutes. This recipe courtesy of Emeril Lagasse, 2005. Update 06/26/10 . . . . use less oil - instead of 1 cup bring it down to 1/2 cup and then work from there.

  • Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak in a flavorful marinade will help to tenderize it and add flavor. A simple marinade made with olive oil, garlic, cilantro, and lime juice is a great option.
  • Cook the steak over high heat: Skirt steak should be cooked over high heat to quickly sear the outside and leave the inside juicy and tender. Grill the steak for 3-4 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired doneness.
  • Serve the steak with a flavorful sauce: A chimichurri sauce made with cilantro, parsley, garlic, and olive oil is a classic accompaniment to skirt steak. Other good options include a salsa verde or a spicy tomato sauce.
