Steak and I go hand in hand! I love the tender taste, flavorful and that light pink color on the inside.

This homemade chimichurri is quick and easy to make within minutes and can be stored for a long period of time. Every bite will seriously melt in your mouth, it is that good!

Summertime just got better with this grilled steak and chimichurri combination!

Ingredients for Marinade:

When marinading your steak, it is best to have it marinade for a little over a few hours up to 24 hours long. The longer the better but will still have that delicious flavor if it needs to be quicker. I like to add all my ingredients in a bowl or even the ziplock bag and shake it all together to have less dishes.

Soy Sauce: This is the main liquid that is going to soak into the steak. Lemon Juice: Acidic juice will help tenderize the steak in the marinade and add flavor. Olive Oil: This helps raise the temperature of the grill on the steaks while it is cooking. Worcestershire Sauce: Has a unique flavoring that pairs well with soy sauce. Minced Garlic: Fresh is best but already jarred is great too. Italian seasoning: A combination of seasonings to make it easier. Pepper and Salt: To taste! Red Pepper: Add in a little spice.

How Long to Marinate Steak: It is best to marinate the steak between 2 to 24 hours. The longer the steak marinates the more tender and juicy the steak will be while grilling.

How to Grill Flank Steak:

Topping with Chimichurri Sauce:

Quick and easy to make and tastes amazing with the intense flavoring. It is one of my favorite sauces to make. Store the sauce and enjoy it all year long.

Blend Together: In a food processor add parsley, cilantro, oregano, garlic, red wine vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper to taste and red pepper flakes.  Pulse until combined and smooth. Serve or Store: Serve immediately or refrigerate up to two weeks.

Cooking Temperatures for Steak:

Know how to cook your steak the way you like! This flank steak will cook up quickly and easily. It is best to cook a little under temperature. Using a meat thermometer is best to know what temperature you are wanting. To gauge the perfect temperature, use a meat thermometer.

Rare: Temperature: 115°F; Remove when it reaches 110°F Medium-Rare: Temperature: 125°F; Remove when it reaches 120°F Medium: Temperature: 135°F; Remove when it reaches 130°F Medium-Well: Temperature: 140°F; Remove when it reaches 135°F Well Done: Temperature: 150°F; Remove when it reaches 145°F

Tips to Help:

Steak: Any type of steak cut will work for this steak marinade. Skirt steak, porter house, ribeye, t-bone or New York strip are also great steaks to enjoy! Cutting Steak: When cutting the steak, remember to cut against the grain. The lines in the meat are the direction you want to find and cut opposite of those lines. This will enhance the flavor of the meat as well as keep it tender. Chimichurri: This is best made in a food processor or a blender. My chimichurri recipe is one of the best or you can use a store bought brand.
