Find a great chimichurri sauce by Wildly Delicious

This is a great, fresh-tasting sauce to enjoy with a variety of steaks – enjoy a higher-quality ribeye or t-bone and serve the sauce on top when served, or use a flank or hanger steak and marinate in the ingredients beforehand. This is the original steak sauce from Argentina – where they know their grass-fed beef!

Chimichurri Sauce Recipe Instructions

  1. Whisk together all of the ingredients in a small bowl. Let stand at room temperature for at least 1 hour before serving. The chimichurri can be stored in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Grilling Steaks:

  1. Pat steaks dry with paper towels. Pre-heat BBQ on high, then turn down to low before placing steaks on grill. Apply olive oil to grill or cast-iron skillet, if pan-frying. Add steaks to skillet/grill and sear until well browned on all sides, turning with tongs, about 2 minutes total.
