Ingredients

4 servings

For the steak

1 ½ lb skirt steak, trimmed
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp kosher salt
½ tsp black pepper, freshly ground

For the chimichurri

1 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves and tender stems, finely chopped
2 tbsp fresh oregano leaves, finely chopped
3 tbsp garlic-infused olive oil
2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
2 tbsp red wine vinegar
¼ tsp red pepper flakes
¼ tsp kosher salt
3 tbsp scallion greens, thinly sliced (optional)

Instructions

1
Make the chimichurri: combine the parsley, oregano, garlic-infused oil, extra-virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, red pepper flakes, salt, and scallion greens (if using) in a small bowl and stir until evenly mixed. Set aside at room temperature while you cook the steak — the flavors deepen as it sits.
2
Pat the skirt steak thoroughly dry with paper towels, then rub all over with the olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
