(Charred. Juicy. Swimming in herbs and garlic — rustic, bold, and made to be shared.)
These steak bites are golden and seared, with a juicy pink center and edges kissed by the pan. But the real magic? That chimichurri butter melting over them — herby, garlicky, spicy and rich. Let it drip. Let it pool. Every bite tells a story.

🔥 Instructions: 1. Make the chimichurri butter: In a small bowl, mash the softened butter with parsley, cilantro, garlic, chili flakes, vinegar, salt and pepper. Set aside or refrigerate to firm up. 2. Sear the steak: Cut steak into thick, uneven chunks. Season with salt and pepper. Sear in a hot pan with olive oil until deeply browned outside and medium rare inside. Add 1 tbsp butter at the end to baste. 3. Finish with flavor: Plate the steak chunks and immediately top with dollops of chimichurri butter. Let it melt over the meat. Serve while hot.
