Ingredients
- Steak
- 2 ribeye or sirloin steaks (about 1 inch thick)
- Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons
- Salt
- 1 teaspoon
- Black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Paprika
- 1 teaspoon
- Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon
- Fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup, chopped (for chimichurri)
- Fresh oregano
- 1 tablespoon, chopped (for chimichurri)
- Red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons (for chimichurri)
- Red pepper flakes
- 1/4 teaspoon (for chimichurri)
- Garlic
- 2 cloves, minced (for chimichurri)
- Olive oil
- 1/2 cup (for chimichurri)
Instructions
- Preheat the grill to high heat (about 450°F to 500°F).
- In a small bowl, combine the salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Mix well.
- Brush both sides of the steaks with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, then generously season with the spice mixture, pressing it onto the meat.
- For the chimichurri sauce, combine the chopped parsley, oregano, minced garlic, red wine vinegar, red pepper flakes, and 1/2 cup of olive oil in a bowl. Mix well and set aside.
- Place the seasoned steaks on the preheated grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting the time according to your desired doneness (use a meat thermometer for accuracy: 130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium).
- Once cooked, remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
- Slice the steaks against the grain and serve hot with a generous drizzle of chimichurri sauce on top.
Tips
- Let the steak come to room temperature before grilling for more even cooking.
- Experiment with different cuts of meat, such as flank or T-bone, for variety.
- For a smoky flavor, consider adding wood chips to the grill.
