Instructions
- Remove the steaks from cold storage and let them come to room temperature for 15-30 minutes. In a small bowl, mix together the espresso powder, chili powder, garlic powder, oregano, and black pepper. Rub the room-temperature steaks with the spice mixture and set aside for 10-15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the Chimichurri sauce. In the bowl of a food processor or blender, combine the parsley, cilantro, garlic cloves, dried oregano, red wine vinegar, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Measure out the olive oil in a liquid measuring cup. Turn the processor or blender on, then slowly drizzle in the olive oil until the contents reach a sauce-like consistency. Set aside to let the flavors mingle.
- Prepare a medium-high heat grill or heat a grill pan coated with non-stick spray. Dust the steaks with the kosher salt, then grill for 5-8 minutes per side or until done to your liking.
- Cover with foil and let rest in a cutting board for 5-10 minutes before carving crosswise into thick strips. Spoon and top with Chimichurri sauce. You can serve it warm with fluffy and crispy potatoes!
Notes
- Store the Espresso Rubbed Steak with chimichurri sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator; it will remain fresh for up to 3-4 days. You can freeze the steak, but it's best to do so without the sauce for optimal texture, and it will last up to 3 months.
- Reheating is possible either in a microwave or skillet over medium heat, but be cautious to avoid overcooking. Gently reheating in a skillet is recommended for the best texture, especially if the steak was previously frozen.
