Gluten-Free Chimichurri Steak with Grilled Veggies
Ingredients
- Chimichurri Sauce
- ¼ cup Chimichurri Seasoning Mix
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 2 tbsp water
- Veggies and Steak
- 4 medium red potatoes, cut into 1″ (2.5-cm) chunks (4 cups)
- 2 cups cauliflower florets (about half a medium head)
- 3 tbsp water
- 1 lb. New York strip steak, cut into 1″ thick strips
- 1 tsp salt, divided
- 1 tsp pepper, divided
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Simple Salad
- 1 cup butter lettuce, torn
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
Instructions
- Mix all the ingredients for the chimichurri sauce in a small bowl. Set aside. Tip: For best flavor, refrigerate it for a few hours or overnight.
- Add the potatoes, cauliflower, and water to a microwave-safe bowl. Cover and microwave for 8 minutes, or until easily pierced by a knife, but still slightly firm. Drain and cool with the lid off.Tip: While the potatoes and cauliflower will be mostly cooked, they’ll finish cooking when they’re grilled.
- Preheat a large cast iron pan or grill pan over high heat for 3–4 minutes. Season each steak with ½ tsp each salt and pepper. Grill the steaks for 3–4 minutes per side, or until cooked to your desired doneness. Remove the steaks and let them rest on a cutting board. Tip: You can also grill the steaks on an outdoor grill over medium-high heat.
- Toss the potatoes and cauliflower with the oil and remaining salt and pepper. Add them to the pan and cook until they start to brown, about 5–7 minutes, turning occasionally.
- Meanwhile, toss the lettuce with the lemon juice and divide evenly onto the plates.
- Thinly slice the steaks and place them over the bed of lettuce. Serve with the potatoes, cauliflower, and a generous drizzle of the sauce. Tip: The tangy greens will have more flavor from the steak and sauce. Try getting a bit of everything for a perfect bite!
