Loved the recipe. Will be making again. Although I seasoned my steak with Garlic Salt instead of just salt alone because it was too plain for my liking. The Chimichurri sauce was okay for my tasting but my boyfriend who is a picky eater LOVED it! I will have to say I will use less wine vinegar next time for the sauce but I will definitely make again. It was fast, easy, and delicious!

I used flank steak because my local grocer didn't have any skirt steak at the time. I followed her instructions to grill the steak and it came out perfectly. I was concerned about it being too chewy or tough but if you cook it to medium/medium rare it will turn out great. Thanks Ingrid!! By the way, I attempted to make the sauce. I'm not sure what happened but it just did not turn out for me. I was disappointed I had to chunk it! Hmmm
