Steak with Chimichurri

Easy Steak with Chimichurri

INGREDIENTS:

  • 4 Grass Fed tenderloin steaks

Rub:

  • 2 Tbsp ground coffee

  • 1 tsp salt

  • 1 tsp garlic

  • 1 tsp paprika

  • 1 tsp black pepper (pre-mix in a bowl with whisk)

Chimichurri:

  • 5 garlic cloves

  • 1 handful of cilantro (washed, trim bottom of stems only)

  • 1 handful of flat leaf parsley (washed, trim bottom of stems only)

  • Pinch or two of salt (add to taste)

  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil (about ¼-1/2 cup)

  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes

INSTRUCTIONS:

  • Chimichurri: place all ingredients in a small food processor and pulse until everything is finely chopped (start with ¼ cup EVOO and add more as needed). Scrape down the sides of the food processor and pulse the ingredients a couple of times, adding more olive oil until you obtain the desired consistency. Add salt and red pepper flakes, to taste.

  • From the sous vide (or raw), coat the steaks with the rub.

  • If sous vide, on high heat, place steaks directly on the grates,  just get a nice sear on the outside, 90 seconds per side.

  • If raw, preheat high, then lower to medium when you put the steaks on, cook for 4-5 minutes per side (for medium)

NOTES:

  • Steaks can be cooked using a sous vide (in water, under vacuum) and finished on the grill.  Add rub after sous vide.

  • Chimichurri can be made hours or a couple days in advance. Extra is always good!

  • Serve with a fresh green salad or with grilled asparagus, lemon, and truffle oil.
