Chimichurri Sauce

Method

Chimichurri Sauce Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chimichurri Sauce

    In a medium-sized bowl, combine the chopped parsley, chopped cilantro, minced garlic, red wine vinegar, and olive oil. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

  2. 2

    Season the Sauce

    Add red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper to the mixture. Stir again to ensure even distribution of the spices. Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if necessary. Set aside.

Steak Preparation

  1. 3

    Prepare the Steak

    Take the ribeye steaks out of the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This helps them cook evenly.

  2. 4

    Season the Steak

    Pat the steaks dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.

  3. 5

    Heat the Pan

    In a large skillet or grill pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.

  4. 6

    Cook the Steak

    Place the steaks in the hot pan and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is reached.

  5. 7

    Rest the Steaks

    Once cooked, remove the steaks from the pan and let them rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.

  6. 8

    Serve

    Slice the steaks against the grain and serve with the chimichurri sauce drizzled on top.
