Steak

Chimichurri Sauce

Fries

Method

Steak

  1. 1

    Prepare the steak

    Season the Bavette steak on both sides with salt and black pepper. Let it sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the steak

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steak and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired doneness.

  3. 3

    Rest the steak

    Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it against the grain.

Chimichurri Sauce

  1. 4

    Combine ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine chopped parsley, minced garlic, red wine vinegar, olive oil, red pepper flakes, and salt. Stir well until all ingredients are fully mixed.

  2. 5

    Adjust seasoning

    Taste the chimichurri sauce and adjust seasoning if necessary by adding more salt or red pepper flakes to your liking.

Fries

  1. 6

    Prepare the potatoes

    Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick.

  2. 7

    Soak the fries

    Place the cut fries in a bowl of cold water and soak for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

  3. 8

    Fry the potatoes

    Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). Drain the soaked fries and pat them dry with paper towels. Fry the potatoes in batches until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes per batch.

  4. 9

    Season the fries

    Remove the fries from the oil and drain on paper towels. Immediately sprinkle with salt to taste.
