Ingredients

• 4 pieces Beef steaks (ribeye, sirloin, or flank)
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 cup Fresh parsley, finely chopped
• 0.5 cup Fresh cilantro, finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon Fresh oregano, finely chopped (or 2 teaspoons dried oregano)
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 3 tablespoons Red wine vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 0.25 cup Vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 2

Rub each beef steak with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, then season with salt and black pepper on both sides. Set aside.

Step 3

To make the chimichurri sauce, combine the parsley, cilantro, oregano, garlic, red wine vinegar, crushed red pepper flakes, lemon juice, water, and vegetable oil in a medium bowl. Mix well to combine. Taste and adjust salt, pepper, or vinegar as needed.

Step 4

Let the chimichurri sit for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together while you grill the steaks.

Step 5

Grill the steaks for 4-6 minutes per side (depending on thickness) for medium-rare, or longer if you prefer your steak more cooked. Use an instant-read thermometer to check the internal temperature: 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare, 140°F (60°C) for medium, and 150°F (66°C) for medium-well.

Step 6

Remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes to retain their juices.

Step 7

Serve the grilled steaks with a generous drizzle of chimichurri sauce on top or on the side. Pair with your favorite side dishes, such as roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
