Title: Grilled Steak with Chimichurri Sauce

Introduction: This mouthwatering Grilled Steak with Chimichurri Sauce recipe will take your steak game to the next level. The marinade gives the meat a delicious and tender flavor, while the chimichurri sauce adds an extra burst of freshness and brightness.

Ingredients:
- 2 lbs beef flank steak or skirt steak
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

For the Chimichurri Sauce:
- 1 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 small shallot, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup olive oil

Instructions:

1. In a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish, combine the olive oil, soy sauce, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, kosher salt, dried oregano, ground cumin, and red pepper flakes (if using).

2. Add the steak to the marinade, making sure it is fully coated. If using a plastic bag, squeeze out excess air and seal, pressing out any bubbles. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes up to 8 hours.

3. While the steak is marinating, prepare the Chimichurri Sauce. In a medium bowl, combine the chopped parsley, cilantro, minced garlic, finely chopped shallot, red wine vinegar, kosher salt, and black pepper. Stir well to mix.

4. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while continuously stirring until fully incorporated. Set aside at room temperature for flavors to meld.

5. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade, letting any excess liquid drain off. Discard the used marinade.

6. Grill the steak to your desired doneness, approximately 4-6 minutes per side for medium-rare. Use a meat thermometer to ensure it reaches at least 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare. Let the steak rest for 5 minutes before slicing against the grain.

7. Serve the Grilled Steak sliced, alongside the Chimichurri Sauce for dipping or drizzling on top. Enjoy!
