STEAKS WITH CHIMICHURRI



Steaks with Chimichurri image

I think steak really is the perfect solution for a quick dinner. First, there's a steak to fit any budget, from pricey filets and rib-eyes (if it's a special dinner) to sirloin and bottom round for a regular weeknight meal. Second, steaks can so easily be changed up with different serving sauces. If you haven't ever tasted the bright-green magic of chimichurri sauce (a South American specialty) spooned over a medium-rare steak...oh, boy. You're in for a treat! I like to pile whole or sliced steaks on a cutting board next to a bowl of chimichurri, then let everyone serve themselves. So fresh and fun.

Time 30m

Yield as many steaks as you like, with enough sauce for 8 to 10 steaks

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups packed cilantro leaves
2 cups packed flat-leaf parsley leaves
Small handful mint leaves
2 garlic cloves, grated
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Kosher salt and black pepper
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil
Any steak of your choice: rib-eye, filet, sirloin, and so on, about 1 1/2 inches thick
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • First, make the chimichurri by placing the herbs and garlic into a food processor (or blender). Add the vinegar, red pepper flakes, salt and black pepper to taste.
  • Pulse it a few times then continue pulsing while adding 3/4 cup of the olive oil. Keep pulsing until the mixture is pulverized, leaving just a little texture from the herbs. Transfer to a bowl, then cover and refrigerate until you need it (you can make it up to 1 day ahead, though it's best to make it the same day).
  • Season the steak on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and add the butter and remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. When it's melted and starting to brown, add a steak. Fry until medium rare, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove the steak and let it rest for 3 minutes. (If you're frying more steaks, just add a little more butter and oil to the pan as needed.)
  • Slice the steak. Serve it with the chimichurri on the side.
