STEAKS WITH CHIMICHURRI

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.

• Make the chimichurri sauce: Add all the sauce ingredients to a small food processor. Pulse 4 to 6 times, until the herbs are roughly chopped and chunky. Transfer to a serving bowl.
• Cook the steak: Pat the flank steak dry with a paper towel. Season generously with salt and a pinch of ground pepper. Place in a medium bowl and drizzle with the olive oil and soy sauce. Add the onion to the bowl and give it all a massage until combined.
• Heat a grill to high for at least 5 minutes. If using a charcoal or gas grill, wipe the grill grates with a lightly oiled paper towel right before cooking to clean off any char and debris. This will give you a great grill mark and help keep the beef from sticking. Alternatively, place a grill pan over high heat and preheat for at least 5 minutes. Rub a little oil on the pan or spray with nonstick cooking spray.
• Grill the steak for about 3 minutes, or until well browned on one side. Turn the steak over and add the onion to the grill.
