Details

Serves: 4

Preparation time: 15 minutes

Cooking time: 12 minutes plus 4-6 minutes resting time

Ingredients:

  • 4 x 200 g grass-fed sirloin or scotch fillet steaks 
  • Oil

Chimichurri sauce

  • 3 garlic cloves, peeled
  • 1 jalapeno chilli, chopped
  • 1 very large handful of flat-leaf parsley leaves
  • 1 very large handful of coriander leaves
  • 1 small handful of oregano leaves100 ml apple cider vinegar
  • Pinch of ground cumin
  • 150 ml olive oil
  • Sea salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper

 

Method

1. To make the sauce, place the garlic and a little salt in a mortar and crush with the pestle. Add the chilli, parsley, coriander and oregano leaves and pound to a paste. Stir through the vinegar, cumin and olive oil, then taste and season with salt and pepper. Set aside until needed.

2. Remove the steaks from the refrigerator at least 15 minutes before cooking so they are at room temperature.

3. Pre-heat barbeque to high. 

4. Coat the steaks with a little oil and season with sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Place the meat on the grill and cook on one side for 2 minutes, or until golden, then flip the meat over and cook for another 2 minutes, until golden (medium-rare). 

5. Remove from the heat and place the meat on a tray or plate, covered with aluminum foil. Allow the steaks to rest for 4 – 6 minutes and keep warm. 

6. Once the steaks are rested, re-heat the steaks quickly by placing them back on the grill for 1 minute on each side.

7. To serve, spoon over some chimichurri sauce over steak and serve with some fresh seasonal salad of your choice.
