1
Prepare the Marinade
In a bowl, combine minced garlic, olive oil, chopped parsley, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.
2
Marinate the Steak
Place the picanha steak in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

3
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 400°F / 200°C).
4
Grill the Picanha
Remove the picanha from the marinade and let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. Place the steak on the grill, fat side up. Cook for about 5-7 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until your desired level of doneness is reached.
5
Rest the Steak
Once cooked, remove the picanha from the grill and let it rest for 10 minutes. This will help the juices redistribute within the meat.
6
Slice and Serve
Slice the picanha against the grain into thin strips. Serve immediately with your favorite sides.
