What you'll need:

  • ½ tsp oregano (fresh or dried)
  • Small bunch of parsley, roughly chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 1 shallot, chopped
  • 2 ½ tbsp olive oil
  • ½ tsp chilli flakes
  • 2 tsp red wine vinegar
  • Juice of ½ lemon
  • 2 x sirloin steaks or similar
Time: 15 minutes
Serves: 2

Method

First

Make your chimichurri. Blitz together the shallot, parsley, oregano, garlic and chilli flakes in a food processor, or chop very finely by hand. Add the lemon juice, 2 tbsp of olive oil, vinegar and some seasoning, and pulse or mix more to get a nice dipping sauce consistency.

Second

Rub the rest of the olive oil into your steaks (make sure they’re room temperature first), and season really well. Heat a frying pan or griddle until banging hot, and fry for 2 or 3 minutes on each side (or however rare or well done you like it). Leave aside to rest for at least 5 minutes before serving, then spoon over the chimichurri, and enjoy with chunky fries. Heaven!

Wine Match

For the perfect wine pairing, crack open a bottle of the Mi Terruno 'Uvas' Malbec 2017 This is a wine that was built for a really flavourful steak such as this dish! Yum!
