Chimichurri Sirloin Steak With Goat Cheese Grilled Vegetables Recipes

CHIMICHURRI SIRLOIN STEAK WITH GOAT CHEESE & GRILLED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Cooking Guidelines To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures: Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) | Seafood 145° F | Chicken 165° F | Ground Beef 160° F | Ground Turkey 165° F | Ground Pork 160° F 1 Prepare the Ingredients Thoroughly rinse all produce and pat dry. Stem parsley and cilantro. If using a blender, roughly chop herb leaves and garlic. If making chimichurri by hand, finely mince garlic, parsley leaves and cilantro leaves. Stem, seed, core, and slice red bell pepper into 1" dice. Slice the zucchini into ½" thick ovals (slice on an angle.) Peel red onion, and slice into ¼" rounds. 2 Make Chimichurri If using blender, add cilantro, parsley, garlic, red wine vinegar, and red pepper flakes into the blender. With blender running, add oil (about 2-4 Tbsp.) until the chimichurri comes together into a runny pesto. If making chimichurri by hand, whisk finely minced garlic, parsley, and cilantro with the vinegar, red pepper flakes, and 2-4 Tbsp. olive oil in a small mixing bowl. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Let sit at room temperature. 3 Grill Steak Season sirloin steaks with a pinch of salt and pepper. Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly coat the grill with nonstick cooking spray. Grill steaks on each side for 5-6 minutes, or until the steaks have reached a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees. Remove to a plate, tent with foil, and let rest for 5 minutes. 4 Mix the Vegetables Combine zucchini, red onion, bell pepper, 1 tsp. olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a mixing bowl. 5 Grill the Vegetables Heat the same grill or grill pan over medium heat and lightly coat with cooking spray. Place vegetables on grill and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until fork tender. 6 Plate the Dish Place a steak in the middle of the plate. Spoon chimichurri over steak. Lay grilled vegetables next to the steak, and top with vegetables and crumbled goat cheese.

SIMPLE SIRLOIN STEAK WITH CHIMICHURRI

Steps:

• Prepare the steak: Set the steaks on a cutting board and slice them in half crosswise. Using your knife, round out the clean-cut edges so the sides look softer. Use paper towels to pat the steaks dry, then season all over with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Set aside 15 to 30 minutes to bring to room temperature.
• Meanwhile, make the chimichurri sauce: Place the cilantro, parsley, onion, lemon juice, vinegar, garlic, red pepper flakes, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until roughly chopped. Slowly pour in the olive oil and process until the chimichurri is semi-smooth, about 4 seconds. Transfer to a small bowl and set aside.
• Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush both sides of each steak with the vegetable oil, then cook, undisturbed, until marked, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook until a thermometer registers 125 degrees F for medium rare, 3 to 5 more minutes. Transfer to plates and let rest 5 minutes. Serve with the chimichurri sauce.

Steps:

• Heat gas or charcoal grill. In food processor, place cilantro, onion, garlic, chile, lime juice, oil and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt. Cover; process until finely chopped. Blend in 2 to 3 teaspoons water to make sauce thinner, if desired. Transfer to small bowl; set aside until serving time.
• In small bowl, combine cumin, pepper and remaining 1 teaspoon salt; rub evenly over steaks. Place steaks on grill over medium heat. Cover grill; cook 7 to 10 minutes for medium-rare (145°F), turning once halfway through cooking.
• Serve 2 tablespoons chimichurri over each steak.
