Flat Iron Steak with Chimichurri Sauce

Ingredients

• Flat iron steak (1 (1.5 to 2 pound))
• Olive oil (2 tablespoons)
• Salt (1 teaspoon)
• Black pepper (1/2 teaspoon)
• Garlic (2 cloves, minced)
• Fresh parsley (1/2 cup, finely chopped)
• Fresh cilantro (1/2 cup, finely chopped)
• Fresh oregano (2 tablespoons, finely chopped)
• Red wine vinegar (1/4 cup)
• Lemon juice (2 tablespoons)
• Red pepper flakes (1/2 teaspoon)

Instructions

1. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
2. To make the chimichurri sauce, combine the minced garlic, chopped parsley, chopped cilantro, chopped oregano, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, and red pepper flakes in a bowl. Mix well and set aside to allow the flavors to meld together.
3. Rub the flat iron steak with olive oil, then season it evenly with salt and black pepper.
4. Place the steak on the preheated grill. Cook for approximately 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare doneness, adjusting the cooking time based on your preference.
5. Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for about 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
6. Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips for serving. This will make it easier to chew and enhance its flavor.
7. Serve the sliced steak with a generous helping of the chimichurri sauce. Enjoy your meal!
