Directions

  1. Step 1

    Step ingredients

    • 12 oz Sirloin steak
    • 5 g Salt

    Actions

    • Dry-brine · 60 min

    Dry-brine the steak. Season with the salt on all sides and leave uncovered in the fridge. Minimum 1 hour, preferably overnight. This will create a perfect crust!

  2. Step 2

    Step ingredients

    • 3 tbsp Olive oil
    • 1 knob Butter

    Actions

    • Grill · 5 min · Until crusted and desired done ness.

    Pat the steak dry. Heat a cast iron pan over high heat, add a bit of olive oil, and cook the steak to desired doneness. When flipped over, add a knob of butter and baste the steak while searing. It should have a good sear on both sides. Remove from the pan and allow to rest for 10 minutes while making the chimichurri.

  3. Step 3

    Step ingredients

    • 2 tbsp Parsley Finely chopped
    • 2 clove Garlic Finely chopped
    • 0.25 tsp Crushed red pepper Flaked
    • 1 pinch Salt
    • 1 pinch Black pepper Cracked
    • 1 tbsp Olive oil
    • 1 tbsp Lemon Juiced

    Actions

    • Mix · 5 min · Until well combined

    In a bowl, combine the parsley, garlic, crushed red pepper, salt, pepper, olive oil, and lemon juice. Mix well to create the chimichurri sauce.

  4. Step 4

    Step ingredients

    • 1 piece Baguette Sliced
    • 1 tbsp Olive oil

    Actions

    • Grill · 5 min · Until crusted

    Toast the baguette slices. Preferably in the pan used for the steak so it can soak up all the juices.

  5. Step 5

    Use output from steps 2, 3 and 4

    Add a slice of steak on a slice of toast. Top with a dollop of chimichurri and stick a pin in it – without it, it is not a pintxo! Serve on a Spanish style platter.
