Ingredients
Scale
FLANK STEAK
- 1 1/2 – 2 lb. flank steak
- 1 cup good red wine (that you’d like to drink!)
- 3 tbsp. worchestershire
- 2 cloves garlic (smashed)
- zest of 1 lemon
- 1 tbsp. complete seasoning spices (like the ones used here from badia spices)
- 1 tsp. dry mustard
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- fresh rosemary
BLACKBERRY CHIMICHURRI
- 1/2 cup mint
- 1/4 cup parsley
- 1/4 cup oregano
- 1 pint fresh blackberries (halved or quartered)
- 1 medium-large shallot
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 tsp chili flakes
- 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- salt & pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine the red wine, Worcestershire sauce, smashed garlic, lemon zest, and complete seasoning spices. Whisk until well combined.
- Place the flank steak in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is well coated. Cover or seal and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and let it come to room temperature while the grill heats up.
- Grill the steak for 5-7 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Let the steak rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
- While the steak is resting, prepare the blackberry chimichurri. In a food processor, combine the blackberries, parsley, cilantro, red wine vinegar, and olive oil. Pulse until well combined but still chunky. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Slice the steak against the grain and serve with the blackberry chimichurri on the side.
Notes
For best flavor, marinate the steak overnight. Use a good quality red wine that you enjoy drinking for the marinade. The blackberry chimichurri can be made a day ahead and stored in the refrigerator. Let the steak rest before slicing to retain its juices.
