Flank Steak with Four Herb Paleo Chimichurri Recipe
Chimichurri is an Argentinian sauce typically served with grilled meats. I first had it in 2004 when I visited Argentina, and later again when I spotted a recipe in a magazine. I have been making many variations since. This spicy four-herb version is by far my favorite. It pairs perfectly with beef, but we often drizzle the leftovers over scrambled eggs!
The chimichurri can be served immediately, but the flavors are greatly improved after a few hours.
I didn’t provide directions for grilling the flank steak… because *gasp* I don’t really know how to grill! I know, I know… you are thinking, but Arsy… there are grilling recipes in your book and on your site? That’s because my husband helps me with those. Since he is off at work today and I really wanted to get this giveaway launched, he is not here to tell me how he made the steak. It’s my goal to learn how to grill this summer and it’s perfect timing because my friend Tony Federico is coming out with a Paleo Grilling book in June (that is available for pre-order now)!.
I do remember my husband mentioning that he didn’t even salt and pepper the steak because he knew the chimichurri is packed with flavor, but he also wanted to taste the TX Bar Organics flank steak all on it’s own. And we all agreed that it was the bomb! It was so juicy and tender. There beef is really more tender than any grass-fed beef that we’ve ever had! If you don’t have a local ranch in your area, I highly recommend ordering beef from these guys!
I am so excited to have teamed up with TX Bar Organics to give away a copy of my cookbook, along with the Paleo Foodie Cookbook meat package! See the details below!
Win The Paleo Foodie Cookbook Package from TX Bar Organics!
(3) 5oz Flank Steaks

3 cloves garlic
1⁄2 tsp sea salt (find sea salt here)
1⁄2 tsp pepper
1⁄2 tsp cumin (find organic cumin here)
1 tsp chili powder (I like this chili powder, as it has no additives)

2 tbsp red wine vinegar (I use this organic vinegar)
- Mix all ingredients in a food processor. Pulse a few times until blended but still coarse.
- Serve over or along side grilled meat of choice.

Samantha says
This is my favorite chimichurri recipe and I put it on everything. Love your blog and recipes. I omit the serrano pepper and chili powder because of the kids but it still tastes awesome. I’m so happy it’s replaced “ketchup” in our household. I also love to put this on butter lettuce as a dressing….so yummy.
admin says
That is so awesome to hear! I’ll have to try it on butter lettuce. I actually started omitting those same things, as my toddler doesn’t do spicy (yet!)

Also, there is a conflict between the giveaway and the picture you have posted underneath it.
