I had some trouble finding lemongrass at my local grocery store. I ended up using ginger instead, and it was still good.

This dish is a bit spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. Next time I'll use less chili pepper in the marinade.

I'm not a big fan of cilantro, so I used parsley in the chimichurri sauce instead. It was still delicious!

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover steak. I had some grilled steak from the night before, and it worked perfectly in this dish.

I love the combination of flavors in this dish. The steak is savory and slightly smoky, while the chimichurri sauce is bright and herbaceous.
