Steps

1

Preheat the grill
2

Place all the chimichurri sauce ingredients in a blender or food processor and pulse until well chopped, do not purée.
3

Dissolve cayenne pepper and salt in one cup of hot water and transfer to a squeeze container.
4

Place meat directly over the hot grill, base with chimichurri grilling sauce until the outer portion of the meat reaches the desired doneness.
5

**For extra spicy steak, base 2 or 3 times additional times with the cayenne pepper mixture during the grilling process. (optional. My family likes the spicier steak)
6

Once done remove steak from grill. let it rest for 20 minutes and then slice. Spoon chimichurri sauce over steak.
