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.

Categories     main-dish

Time 10h25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups grapeseed oil
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
2 teaspoons diced seeded jalapenos
1 teaspoon red chile flakes
2 cloves garlic, minced
Juice of 2 limes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
5 pounds skirt steak
Roasted carrots and yucca, for serving, optional

Steps:

  • In a bowl, whisk together the grapeseed oil, parsley, vinegar, jalapenos, chile flakes, garlic, lime juice and 2 teaspoons each salt and pepper. Set aside 1/2 cup of the chimichurri sauce for marinating the steak; reserve the remaining sauce for serving.
  • Tenderize the skirt steak by pounding it lightly. Sprinkle the steak with kosher salt and black pepper, keeping in mind that there is salt and pepper in the marinade. Transfer to a bowl or dish and add the 1/2 cup chimichurri sauce. Marinate, refrigerated, at least 10 hours or overnight.
  • When ready to cook the steak, heat a grill or saute pan to medium heat. Remove the steak from the marinade (discard the marinade). Grill the steak to medium-rare, 4 to 5 minutes per side, or cook to desired temperature or doneness. Let the steak rest for 5 minutes before slicing in thin strips on the bias.
  • Put some steak slices on each plate and spoon over the reserved chimichurri. Serve with roasted carrots and roasted yucca or your favorite vegetable and starch. Enjoy!

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

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.
  • Transfer the vegetables to a food processor or blender. Add the parsley, cilantro, olive oil, oregano, and vinegar and purée until smooth. Season the chimichurri with salt and pepper. You should have about 1 cup.
  • 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.

Tips:

  • Select the Best Cut of Steak: For the best results, choose a tender and flavorful cut of steak, such as ribeye, strip loin, or tenderloin.
  • Use High-Quality Ingredients: Fresh, high-quality ingredients will make a big difference in the overall flavor of the dish. Choose ripe avocados, fresh cilantro, and a good-quality olive oil.
  • Make the Chimichurri Sauce Ahead of Time: The chimichurri sauce can be made up to 2 days in advance. This allows the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Don't Overcook the Steak: To ensure a tender and juicy steak, cook it to your desired doneness. For medium-rare, cook for about 4-5 minutes per side. For medium, cook for an additional 1-2 minutes per side.
  • Use a Hot Pan: When cooking the steak, use a hot pan to sear the meat and lock in the juices.
  • Let the Steak Rest: After cooking the steak, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
  • Serve Immediately: Serve the steak and chimichurri toasts immediately while the steak is hot and the flavors are at their best.
