Method

For the Churrasco

  1. 1

    Prepare the Skirt Steak

    Take the skirt steak out of the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking.

  2. 2

    Season the Steak

    Rub the skirt steak with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, then season generously with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to high heat (around 450-500°F or 232-260°C).

  4. 4

    Grill the Steak

    Place the seasoned skirt steak on the hot grill. Grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust the cooking time to reach your desired doneness.

  5. 5

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for about 5-10 minutes before slicing against the grain.

For the Chimichurri Sauce

  1. 6

    Combine Ingredients

    In a medium bowl, combine the chopped parsley, chopped oregano, minced garlic, red wine vinegar, olive oil, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 7

    Mix the Sauce

    Whisk all the ingredients together until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

  3. 8

    Let it Rest

    Let the chimichurri sauce sit for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together before serving.
