Ingredients

  • 1-1/2 lbs. boneless beef top sirloin steak, cut 1 inch thick
  • 1 tsp. chopped garlic

Chimichurri Sauce:

  • 1 cup packed fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
  • 1 Tbsp. packed fresh or dried oregano leaves
  • 2 tsp. chopped garlic
  • 2 tsp. fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp. paprika (smoked or hot)
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. pepper
  • 1/2 cup red wine vinegar
  • 1/2 cup olive oil

Instructions

Place Chimichurri Sauce ingredients, except for the red wine vinegar and olive oil, in food processor container.  Cover; pulse until well blended, do not puree.  Transfer to small bowl and stir in red wine vinegar and olive oil.  Cover and refrigerate 1 hour to blend flavors.

Soak twelve 9-inch bamboo skewers in water 10 minutes; drain.

Cut beef steak crosswise into 1/2-inch thick strips.  Toss strips with garlic.  Thread beef, weaving back and forth, onto each skewer.

Place kabobs on grid over medium, ash-covered coals.  Grill, uncovered, 5 to 7 minutes for medium rare to medium doneness, turning occasionally.  Season with salt and pepper.

Serve with Chimichurri Sauce.

Tips from Our Cook

To prepare chimichurri sauce by hand, finely chop herbs and garlic; combine with remaining ingredients to form a thick sauce.

To prepare on gas grill, preheat grill according to manufacturer's directions for medium heat.  Grill kabobs, covered, 6 to 8 minutes for medium rare to medium doneness, turning occasionally.

This is a great recipe - so flavorful and the chimichurri sauce pairs perfectly with the steak! We used the leftover chimichurri sauce over vegetables and a salad the next day!

I really enjoyed the flavor combination of the sauce with the beef! This recipe was delicious and a great source of monunsaturated fats between the beef and the olive oil in the Chimichurri sauce!
