Chimichurri Sauce

• ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
• ⅓ cup red wine vinegar
• 1 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley
• ⅓ cup fresh cilantro
• 2 cloves fresh garlic peeled
• ¾ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• Salt and pepper to taste

Remaining Ingredients

• ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
• 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
• 2 cloves fresh garlic chopped
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1½ pounds flank steak sliced into thin strips
• 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

Instructions

• Combine the olive oil, vinegar, parsley, cilantro, garlic, red pepper flakes, lemon juice, and cumin in a food processor and blend until smooth.
• Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and set aside.
• In a small glass bowl, combine the olive oil, lime juice, and chopped garlic with a fork. Season with salt and pepper, if desired.
• Place the flank steak in a large, Ziploc plastic bag and add the olive oil mixture.
• Tightly seal the bag and turn a couple times to coat the steak in the marinade. Place in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to overnight.
• To prepare, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Remove the steak from the marinade and allow excess to drip off before adding to the hot skillet.
• Cook the steak for 3-4 minutes, then turn and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes for medium-rare results. Adjust cooking times to reach the desired level of doneness.
• Remove from heat and transfer steak to a cutting surface. Let rest for 5 minutes before cutting into very thin slices against the grain.
• To serve, drizzle steak with some Chimichurri sauce and pass remaining sauce for those who prefer a little more. Enjoy!
