Ingredients
Mango Chimichurri:
1 cup fresh cilantro leaves
1 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
1/2 cup fresh mint leaves
4 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
3/4 cup olive oil, plus more if needed
1/4 cup red wine vinegar, plus more if needed
2 tablespoons honey
2 teaspoons paprika
Kosher salt and fresh cracked black pepper
1 ripe mango, finely diced
Rib Eye Steak:
One 1 1/2 to 2-inch-thick well-marbled rib eye steak
Canola oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions
- Cook's Note: Remove the steaks from the refrigerator 20 minutes before cooking.
- Preheat the grill to high.
- For the mango chimichurri: Pulse the cilantro, parsley, mint and garlic in a food processor until coarsely chopped. Add in the oil, vinegar, honey and paprika, and salt and pepper, to taste. Continue pulsing to make a soupy vinaigrette (it will look a bit creamy until it settles), pouring in more oil and/or vinegar if too thick. Transfer the chimichurri to a glass bowl and fold in the diced mango. Set aside.
- For the rib eye steak: Brush the steak with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper on both sides. Grill until golden brown and slightly charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip the steaks and continue grilling 5 to 6 minutes longer. Remove from the grill and let rest 5 minutes.
- Top each steak with a large dollop of the Mango Chimichurri and serve.
