Grilled Skirt Steak with Chimichurri
Skirt steak gets a flavor boost from chimichurri, the piquant Argentinean condiment that includes fresh herbs, garlic, vinegar and olive oil. This recipe calls for cooking the steak on a stovetop grill pan, so you can enjoy the dish year-round. Serve a quinoa salad alongside (see related recipe at left).
