Fresh Cilantro0.5 bunch
Fresh Oregano2 sprigs
Fresh Chives2 tbsp
Garlic3 cloves
Shallots1 small
Red Wine Vinegar30 ml
Lemon Zest0.5 tsp
Lemon Juice15 ml

Freshly Ground Black Pepperto taste
Rendered Beef Tallow15 ml

Method

Chimichurri Verde
1
In a small bowl, combine finely chopped parsley, cilantro, oregano, chives, minced garlic, and minced shallots. Stir in red wine vinegar, lemon zest, lemon juice, avocado oil, and anchovy paste (if using). Season generously with flake sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Stir well and set aside to allow flavors to meld.
2
Pat skirt steak thoroughly dry. Season aggressively on both sides with flake sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
3
Heat a cast iron skillet or grill pan over very high heat until smoking. Add rendered beef tallow. Sear the skirt steak for 2-3 minutes per side. For true charring and a deep Maillard reaction, ensure the pan is intensely hot. Skirt steak cooks quickly to medium-rare due to its thinness.
4
Remove steak from heat and transfer to a cutting board. Let rest for 5 minutes. This is crucial for retaining juices.
5
Slice the skirt steak thinly against the grain at a slight bias. Arrange slices on a serving platter or individual plates.
6
Spoon a generous amount of the vibrant Chimichurri Verde over the warm, sliced steak and serve immediately.
