Ingredients
- 2 pounds skirt steak
- 0.5 cup olive oil
- 0.25 cup red wine vinegar
- 1 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 4 units garlic cloves, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Directions
Step 1
In a medium bowl, combine olive oil, red wine vinegar, chopped parsley, minced garlic, red chili flakes, salt, black pepper, oregano, and fresh lemon juice. Mix thoroughly to create the chimichurri sauce.
Step 2
Reserve half of the chimichurri sauce in a separate bowl for serving.
Step 3
Place the skirt steak in a large dish or large zip-top bag and pour the remaining chimichurri over the steak. Ensure the steak is fully coated. Marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature or up to 4 hours in the refrigerator for more flavor.
Step 4
Preheat a grill to medium-high heat. If grilling indoors, a cast-iron grill pan can be used.
Step 5
Remove the steak from the marinade and let any excess drip off. Discard marinade.
Step 6
Grill the skirt steak on the preheated grill for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired doneness.
Step 7
Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Step 8
Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips.
Step 9
Serve the keto churrasco with the reserved chimichurri sauce drizzled over the top. Enjoy!
