flank steak

🥗Healthier: sirloin steak

💰Cheaper: chuck roast

Sirloin is leaner while chuck roast is more economical.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Avocado oil is healthier with a high smoke point.

red wine vinegar

🥗Healthier: apple cider vinegar

💰Cheaper: white vinegar

Apple cider vinegar offers a similar tang.

fresh parsley

🥗Healthier: fresh cilantro

💰Cheaper: dried parsley

Dried parsley is more affordable but less vibrant.

1

Pat the skirt steak dry and trim off any excess fat or silver skin.

2

Season the steak with olive oil, kosher salt, and black pepper. Let it sit for about 20-30 minutes to come to room temperature.

3

Remove the stems from 1 cup of fresh parsley and place the leaves in a blender.

4

Add 1 tablespoon of dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon of red pepper flakes, 1/4 cup of red wine vinegar, and 1/2 cup of olive oil to the blender with the parsley.

5

Smash and add garlic to the blender, then pulse until the desired consistency is reached for the chimichurri sauce.

6

Preheat the Char-Broil four-burner gas grill to high heat (around 450 degrees).

7

Grill the steak for 2-3 minutes without moving it to achieve a deep sear, then flip and grill for another 2-3 minutes aiming for a medium-rare doneness (about 130° internal temperature).

8

Let the steak rest for about 10 minutes before slicing against the grain.

9

Grab a corn tortilla, load it up with sliced steak, and top it off with chimichurri sauce.
