Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat a grill or grill pan to high heat. Rub 2 ribeye steaks evenly with 1 tsp kosher salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 1 tbsp olive oil.
- Step 2: Place steaks over direct heat and grill for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, creating a nice crust. Remove and rest on a cutting board for 10 minutes.
- Step 3: While steaks rest, char 6 whole scallions directly on the grill, turning occasionally until blackened and softened, about 5 minutes.
- Step 4: Chop the charred scallions and transfer to a food processor with 1 cup fresh parsley, 1/2 cup cilantro, 3 minced garlic cloves, 2 tbsp red wine vinegar, 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp kosher salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes.
- Step 5: Pulse until finely chopped but still textured, scraping down sides as needed.
- Step 6: Drizzle the chimichurri over the sliced ribeye steaks and serve immediately.
