"Steak is the perfect solution for a quick dinner," says Ree Drummond. "Firstly, you can choose a cut of meat to suit any budget, from a pricey filet mignon or ribeye (for a special occasion) to a sirloin steak for a casual weeknight dinner. Secondly, the flavor of steak can be easily customized with different sauces. If you haven't yet experienced the magic of bright green Argentine chimichurri sauce over medium-rare steak, you're in for a real treat! I like to place whole or sliced ​​steaks on a cutting board next to a bowl of chimichurri so everyone can help themselves. It's so fresh and fun!"

Preparation:

Step 1
• First, prepare the chimichurri by placing all the herbs and garlic in a food processor (or blender). Add vinegar, red pepper flakes, and salt and pepper to taste.
Step 2
• Pulse a few times, then continue to pulse, adding 3/4 cup olive oil. Continue to pulse until the sauce is smooth. Transfer to a bowl, then cover and refrigerate until ready to use (the sauce can be made a day ahead, but is best made the day before serving).
Step 3
• Season the steak with salt and black pepper on both sides. Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium heat and add the butter and the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. When the butter has melted and begins to brown, add the steak.
Step 4
• Cook until medium-rare, 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the steak and let it rest for 3 minutes. If you're cooking more steaks, add a little more butter and olive oil. Slice the steak. Serve with chimichurri sauce.
