Ingredients

  

• 1 recipe of home made chimichurri sauce* or store bought chimichurri *see recipe instructions
• 2-3 lbs flank or skirt steak
• 2 tsp cumin

Method

 

1. Air fry the French fries according to package directions, after seasoning well with salt and pepper.

   While these cook, pre-heat the grill to about 450 degrees.
2. While the grill heats, season the steak with cumin, chili powder, paprika, and garlic powder. Grill for approximately 4 minutes per side, or to desired doneness.

   Allow the steak to rest for about 5 minutes, then slice against the grain.
3. To serve, plate several slices of steak and a heap of fries, and drizzle a liberal spoonful of chimichurri over the steak, or in a small condiment bowl on the side.
