Grilled Flank Steak with Chimichurri


This recipe shown with the roasted potatoes and a portabella mushroom, brushed with balsamic vinegar and olive oil, grilled, then topped with tomato, basil, garlic and cheese, melted on the grill.


Steak recipe based on a recipe from:  www.carascravings.blogspot.com 

1 1/4 lb flank steak
1 tbsp packed brown sugar
2 tsp paprika
1 tsp cumin
salt & pepper
****
1 cup fresh parsley leaves
1/4 cup fresh mint leaves
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup chicken broth
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons fresh oregano leaves ( used 2 teaspoon dried)
1 tbsp olive oil
salt & pepper
1/2 teaspoon cayenne (or less if you wish)
1 tablespoon crushed garlic

Slice some lines across the grain of the flank steak to score it.
Combine the first group of items. Rub all over both sides of the steak.
Let stand at room temperature for at least 40 minutes before grilling.

Preheat grill to medium high heat.
Cook the steak for about 6-8 minutes on each side for medium-rare to medium.

Combine the remaining ingredients in a blender or food processor and process
until smooth, scraping down the sides if necessary.

Remove the steak from the grill, cover with foil and let rest 5-10 minutes before
slicing. Serve the sliced steak with the chimichurri sauce.
