Argentines are well-known for their love of meat, and it's customary
to serve grilled steaks and other meats with chimichurri sauce, a fresh
sauce made with lots of green herbs, like the cilantro and parsley used
in this recipe.

Total Time: 25 min
Prep Time: 15 min
Serves: 6

1 cup packed fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
1 cup packed fresh cilantro leaves
1 clove garlic
3 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
2 Tbsp sherry vinegar
1/4 tsp dried oregano
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper
Kosher salt
Pepper
4 (2 1/2 lb total, each 1 inch thick) New York beef strip steaks

Prepare outdoor grill for direct grilling on medium-high. Fit wire
rack into jelly-roll pan.

Prepare herb sauce: In food processor with knife blade attached,
combine parsley, cilantro, and garlic; pulse until finely chopped.
Add oil, vinegar, oregano, red pepper, and 1/8 teaspoon each salt
and black pepper; pulse to blend.

Pat steaks dry. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper all over
