Chimichurri Rib Eye Steak

Ingredients:

  • 2 Rib Eye Steaks
  • Butter
  • Sprig of Thyme
  • Salt & Pepper
  • A little oil for frying the steaks

 

Chimichurri:

  • ½ cup Olive oil
  • 2 tbs.  Red wine vinegar
  • ½ cup  Flat leaf parsley finely chopped
  • 3-4 cloves Garlic finely chopped
  • 1 Red Jalapeño chilli de-seeded and finely chopped
  • 1 Red Thai Chilli chopped seeds in
  • ¾ tsp. Dried or fresh oregano
  • 1 tsp.  Coarse salt
  • ½ tsp. Ground Black pepper course
  • 1 tsp. Sugar

 

Instructions:

  • Allow your steaks to come to room temperature by covering them with cling film on a plate and letting them rest on the kitchen counter in a cool area for an hour.
  • While the steaks are coming to temperature, chop all your ingredients for the sauce. Do not do this in an electric chopper/blender, the sauce needs to be chunky.
  • Mix all ingredients together in a bowl. Allow to sit for 5-10 minutes to release all of the flavours into the oil before using. Ideally, let it sit for more than 2 hours, if time allows.
  • Once your steaks are at room temperature and you are ready to serve, heat your pan on high, add a splash of oil, season steaks and fry to your liking.
    Only turn your steak once you have a nice brown caramalisation crust on the seared side.
  • Turn the pan heat down, add the butter and thyme, it should froth the butter and you can then baste the steaks with the nut brown butter.
  • Transfer to the cooling rack, season again and then plate up topping the steaks with the chimichurri sauce.
