Ingredients
Scale
1 lb flank steak
1 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1/4 cup olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 lemon, juiced and zested
1 tsp red pepper flakes
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
In a bowl, combine parsley, cilantro, red wine vinegar, olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper to create the chimichurri sauce.
Marinate the flank steak in half of the chimichurri sauce for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Grill the flank steak for about 5-7 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness.
Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes.
Slice the steak against the grain and serve with the remaining chimichurri sauce on top.
Notes
For best flavor, marinate the steak overnight.
Chimichurri can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to your spice preference.
