Ingredients

Chimichurri:

2 cups packed fresh parsley leaves

1 tablespoon fresh oregano leaves

1 cup cilantro leaves

4 cloves garlic

1 teaspoon smoked Spanish paprika

1/4 cup red wine vinegar

1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Grilled Steak and Sausages:

2 (8-ounce) filet mignon

1/2 pound chorizo sausage

1/2 pound hot Italian sausage links

Oil, for brushing

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Eggs:

Butter

8 large eggs

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Garlic Toast, for serving, recipe follows

Grilled Garlic Toast:

8 (1/4-inch thick) slices country bread

2 garlic cloves, cut in 1/2

Extra-virgin olive oil

Directions

  1. For the chimichurri:
  2. Combine the parsley, oregano, cilantro and garlic in a food processor and pulse until coarsely chopped. Add the paprika, vinegar, oil and salt and pepper, to taste, and process until smooth. Scrape into a bowl and let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before serving.
  3. The sauce can be made 8 hours in advance tightly covered and refrigerated. Bring to room temperature before serving.
  4. For the steak and sausages:
  5. Heat the grill to high. Brush the steak and sausages with oil and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Grill the steak until golden brown and slightly charred on both sides and cooked to medium-rare doneness, about 4 minutes per side. Grill the sausages until golden brown on both sides and just cooked though, about 15 minutes. Remove the steak and sausages from the grill to a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes. Slice and reserve.
  6. For the eggs:
  7. Heat a large cast iron pan on top of the grill. Once the pan is hot add the butter and eggs and either fry or scramble. Remove the eggs to a serving platter and top with the chimichurri and sliced sausages. Arrange the steak around the eggs and serve with Garlic Toast.

Grilled Garlic Toast:

  1. For the garlic toast:
  2. Heat the grill to high. Toast bread on both sides until lightly golden brown, about 20 seconds per side. Remove from grill, rub with the cut side of garlic and drizzle with olive oil.

Seems like some of the low ratings are due to the authenticity of cilantro in a chimichurri.  That aside, I made the recipe and it was delicious!  My son who hates all greens was eating the sauce with a spoon.  Traditional or not it is fantastic.  Also great on fish
