GRILLED STEAK TIPS WITH CHIMICHURRI

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Toss beef tips with canola oil in a bowl; season with salt and pepper.
• Grill steak tips until they are beginning to firm but still slightly pink in the center, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

GRILLED STEAK WITH CHIMICHURRI

Steps:

• To prepare sauce: Combine parsley, oregano, garlic, oil, vinegar, lemon juice, salt, and crushed red pepper in a small bowl.
• To prepare steak: Preheat grill to medium-high. Rub 1 Tbsp. of the sauce evenly over steak; sprinkle with salt. Grill the steak to the desired degree of doneness (130 degrees F for medium-rare), 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a clean cutting board and let stand for 10 minutes.
• Slice the steak across the grain. Divide the steak slices among 4 plates and spoon the remaining sauce over the top.

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.

GRILLED BEEF WITH CHIMICHURRI SAUCE

Steps:

• In a glass bowl, combine the oil, vinegar, lime juice, oregano, parsley, garlic and crushed red pepper. Season with salt, pepper and cayenne.
• Place beef in a zip-lock plastic bag and add 3/4 cup (200ml) chimichurri sauce. Remove excess air from bag, seal it, and turn bag several times to coat beef with the sauce. Marinate in refrigerator for 2 hours. Cover the remaining sauce and refrigerate.
• About 30 minutes before grilling, remove the beef and reserved sauce from the refrigerator. Soak wood chips in cold water. Heat a covered charcoal or gas grill to medium hot. Just before cooking toss the wood chips into the hot coals, or add the wood chips to the gas grill according to manufacturer's instructions.
• Grill the beef, turning occasionally and basting with the marinade from the bag until the outside is well browned and inside is cooked to desired degree, about 10 to 20 minutes. (A thermometer should register 125F°/52°C for medium-rare, or 135F°/57°C for medium.) Discard remaining marinade from the bag.
• Transfer beef to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes. Slice and transfer to a warmed serving platter. Drizzle the slices with some of the reserved chimichurri sauce and serve while still hot.
• NOTE: If using a strip loin, leave a 1/2-inch (1.25cm) layer of fat around the roast. For individual steaks, cut the meat into 6-ounce (170g) portions, about 1 1/2 inches (3.75cm) thick. Sear in a hot pan for 2 minutes on each side, and then grill for 4 to 5 minutes on each side, or as desired.
