Chimichurri Steak

Chimichurri Steak

Difficulty : Super easy
Preparation time: 5m
Cooking time: 8m

If you’re looking for an easy way to add a lot of flavour to steaks, chops, or fish, chimichurri sauce is an excellent choice. It comes together in a flash and gives a flavour profile that is hard to find elsewhere.

The recipe makes enough sauce for at least 2 portions so use the leftover sauce on eggs or fish, or even as a marinade for meat. It will last for a week or two in the fridge.
