Description
Zesty chimichurri sauce is a delicious match for barbecued steak. Plus, it’s an easy sauce to whip up and bring with you to a barbecue picnic at the park.
Method

Combine parsley, garlic, eschalot, oregano, vinegar, rind, juice, chilli and 1/2 cup of the oil in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Stand until required.

Meanwhile, drizzle remaining oil over steaks. Season with salt and pepper. Heat a barbecue or grill pan over high heat. Cook steaks for 3-4 minutes on each side or until cooked to your liking. Stand, covered, for 5 minutes to rest. Serve steaks with chimichurri and chargrilled lemon.
