Chimichurri Skirt Steak With Grilled Shishito Peppers Recipes

Steps:

• Add the vinegar, scallions, garlic, cilantro, 1/3 cup of the olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and a generous amount of pepper to a blender. Blend until smooth. Reserve 1/3 cup. Marinate the skirt steak in a large resealable plastic bag with the remaining chimichurri for 2 hours or up to overnight.
• Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat and brush the grates with oil.
• Remove the steak from the marinade, wipe off most of the excess marinade and sprinkle both sides with salt. Grill the steak, flipping once, until an instant-read thermometer registers 125 degrees F, 4 to 5 minutes per side (you may need to pull the thinner pieces of steak off first as they will cook quicker). Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Wipe the grill clean and reduce the heat to medium.
• Meanwhile, toss the shishito peppers with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, Aleppo pepper and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Grill, flipping occasionally, until the peppers are blistered in spots and have softened, about 6 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and toss with the lime juice.
• Divide the peppers and steak among 4 plates and spoon the reserved chimichurri sauce over the top of the steak.

Steps:

• Season beef with salt and pepper and place it into a ziptop bag.
• In the bowl of a food processor combine herbs, garlic, red pepper and process until chopped fine but not pureed. Scrape mixture out into a large measuring cup. Add olive oil, vinegar and lime juice and stir until combined. Pour about 1 cup into a small serving bowl and reserve for later. Pour the rest over the beef in the zip top bag. Seal and marinate in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
• Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Remove meat from ziptop bag and place onto hot grill. Discard marinade. Grill 5-6 minutes per side until desired doneness. Remove from grill, loosely tent with foil and let rest for 5-10 minutes. Slice meat across grain into long strips and serve with reserved chimichurri sauce and crusty bread.
