    A GREAT marinade for beef, and coupled with skirt steak, it's a staple on my grill. You can't beat it.

    Very good. Used a Blade Steak which came out very tender and the Chimichurri sauce was very tasty. Next time think I would cut back slightly on the garlic and oregano and use a skirt steak or tri-tip. Would be great served over a rice.

    Perfect blend of flavors. Steak was tender and flavorful. The chimichuri was absolutely delicious. We added homemade guacamole to top it all off.
