  • Total Time: 1 hour 10 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 small shallot, minced
  • 3 medium cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1/3 cup white wine vinegar
  • 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup firmly-packed parsley leaves, minced
  • 1/2 cup firmly-packed basil leaves, minced
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 lb top sirloin steak, fat trimmed
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable or canola oil, divided
  • kosher salt and pepper
  • 2 medium whole sweet peppers
  • 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 4 cups cooked hot white or brown rice
  • tortilla chips, sliced avocado, black beans, tomatoes, and lime wedges for serving

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine minced shallot, garlic, red pepper flakes, and white wine vinegar. Whisk to combine.
  2. Gradually drizzle in the olive oil while whisking continuously until the mixture is smooth.
  3. Add the minced parsley and basil, then season with salt and pepper to taste. Store the chimichurri in the refrigerator until needed.
  4. Trim the fat from the steak and season with kosher salt and pepper.
  5. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steak for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, depending on thickness.
  6. Remove the steak from the skillet, cover with foil, and let it rest for 10 minutes. Slice against the grain.
  7. In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of oil and sauté the sliced peppers and onions until soft, about 5-7 minutes.
