DH and I made this and thought it had great flavor, despite the fact we overcooked ours. So, be careful in Step 10….the original recipe says to cook about an hour until the instant-read thermometer registers 130F. After an hour, ours was way too well-done. DH suggests you check the meat with your thermometer at least every 15-20 minutes. Also, prep and cook time do not include time it takes to roast the red bell pepper. Finally, you will need kitchen string. From the Williams-Sonoma “Steak and Chop” book.
My daughter brought this recipe back from her honeymoon in Argentina. It is very simple….the longest part is just marinating. (8 hours). This is not included in prep time as it is inactive prep time. Any leftovers are great on a sandwich or on a salad!
This recipe is from Canadian Living’s Get Grilling: Summer 2007. It’s a wonderful sauce and marinade that’s also called chimichurri rojo. To marinate 1 lb of lamb chops, boneless pork chops, steak or chicken legs you’ll need 1/3 cup of sauce. Marinade the meat for 4 to 24 hours before grilling.
This is a marinade for the churrasco dish. In Argentina, where this style of cooking developed, “churrasco” actually refers to many types of meats prepared on the grill. It’s also popular with Nicaraguans. The churrasco cut steak is a long flat cut of skirt steak, cut from the “plate” of the cow. You might find it sold at some butcher shops as a “plate” steak. Don’t confuse it with the flank steak, a similar cut, but NOT the same! The churrasco steak is typically marinated to make it tender and full of flavour. Serve topped with Recipe #456210. I did not include marinating time. Enjoy!
