Preparation

Step 1

For the steak:

In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, brown sugar, paprika, garlic and black pepper to form a paste. Coat the flank steak with the paste and put it in a re-sealable plastic bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 4 hours, or overnight.

For the chimichurri:

In a blender or food processor, combine the parsley, cilantro, bell pepper, garlic, olive oil, red wine vinegar, oregano, salt, granulated sugar and red pepper flakes and lightly pulse until combined and no longer chunky, but not completely pureed.

To cook and serve:

1. Remove the marinated meat from the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature.

2. Heat a grill grill or grill pan to medium. Grease grill grates with oil or coat pan with nonstick spray.

3. Grill the steak, covered, for 7 to 10 minutes on each side for medium-rare (a bit less if you like it more rare).

4. Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest, covered with aluminum foil, for 10 minutes to allow the juices to settle and the temperature to even.

5. On a cutting board, thinly slice the steak across the grain. Liberally drizzle the slices with the chimichurri sauce and serve.
