directions:
1. Combine all the steak ingredients in a large bowl, cover, and marinate in the refrigerator for 1–3 hours.
2. To make the chimichurri sauce, pulse all the ingredients lightly in a food processor until a coarse sauce forms. Cover and set aside for 2 hours in the refrigerator.
3. Preheat a grill to high or heat a large skillet over high heat. Drain the marinade and cook the steak to medium- rare, 4 to 6 minutes on each side. Let sit for 5 to 10 minutes, then cut against the grain in ¼- inch slices and top with chimichurri sauce.
