Chimichurri Steak Recipe

Sometimes you just need to punch up the flavor of your steak dinner. A few spices rubbed on your steak and chimichurri sauce drizzled on top are the answer!

I made this chimichurri steak with a boneless sirloin but you can also make it with skirt steak (my favorite cut of beef!) or a flank steak.

Honestly folks, there’s nothing quite like a wonderfully seasoned steak topped with a sauce made of fresh herbs and spices that adds garlic and spice notes.

Make it Whole30

If you are doing a Whole30 meal plan then you need to add this Sirloin With Chimichurri Sauce recipe to your menu rotation! All the ingredients in this recipe follow Whole30 guidelines, just be certain that your red wine vinegar is Whole30 compliant.

Be sure you’re doing Whole30 right and check out all you need to know about Whole30 at the Whole30 web site.

I make commissions for purchases made through links in this post.

I hand chopped the ingredients of my chimichurri sauce for a bit of texture but you can pulse it in the food processor if you prefer a smooth herb sauce. I love using my mini food processor for small sauces like this one.

You also can either broil or grill the steak while the flavors of your chimichurri sauce are marrying. Ok, my mouth is watering right now, how about yours?
