Why You’ll Love This Recipe

This grilled steak with chimichurri and raspberries is not just easy to make; it’s also bursting with flavor and color. Here’s why it’s a must-try:

  • Quick and Easy: Perfect for busy weeknights.
  • Flavor Explosion: The chimichurri packs a punch with fresh herbs and garlic.
  • Fresh and Fruity: Raspberries add a delightful contrast to the savory steak.
  • Impressive Presentation: It looks as good as it tastes, ideal for guests.
  • Customizable: Adjust the chimichurri to your taste preference.

Ingredients

  • 2 ribeye steaks (about 1 inch thick, 1 pound each)
  • 1 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Lemon wedges, for serving

How to Make Grilled Steak with Chimichurri Sauce

  1. Start by marinating the steaks. Season both sides of the ribeye steaks with salt and pepper. Let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
  2. While the steaks are resting, prepare the chimichurri sauce. In a medium bowl, combine the chopped parsley, minced garlic, olive oil, red wine vinegar, and red pepper flakes. Mix well and season with salt to taste. Set aside to let the flavors meld.
  3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Ensure the grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.
  4. Once the grill is hot, place the steaks on it. Grill for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and grill for another 4-5 minutes for medium-rare (internal temperature of 130-135°F). Adjust the time according to your preferred doneness.
  5. Remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for about 5 minutes. This helps the juices redistribute, ensuring a tender bite.
  6. To serve, slice the steaks against the grain and spoon the chimichurri sauce generously over the top. Garnish with fresh raspberries and serve with lemon wedges.

Tips for the Best Results

  • Allow your steaks to come to room temperature before grilling for even cooking.
  • Let the chimichurri sit for at least 10 minutes to enhance the flavors.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the doneness of the steak accurately.
  • Experiment with additional herbs in the chimichurri, such as cilantro or oregano, for a unique flavor twist.

Easy Variations

  • Swap ribeye for flank steak or sirloin for a leaner option.
  • Add diced tomatoes to the chimichurri for a fresh twist.
  • For a spicy kick, incorporate diced jalapeños into the chimichurri.

What to Serve With It

  • Grilled vegetables, such as zucchini and bell peppers.
  • A simple arugula salad with a lemon vinaigrette.
  • Roasted potatoes or garlic mashed potatoes.
  • Quinoa or rice pilaf for a hearty side.

Storage and Reheating

Store any leftover steak and chimichurri in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, warm the steak gently in a skillet over low heat or in the microwave, ensuring not to overcook it. Chimichurri can be kept in the fridge and used as a dressing for salads or dips for up to a week.
