FLANK STEAK WITH CHIMICHURRI SAUCE
The hallmarks to perfect grilled steaks are a great charred crust with some grill marks, seasoning generously and nailing the temperature (doneness). Always consider the thickness of the steak when cooking, knowing the thicker the steak, the longer the cook time (see the Cook's Note below). Chimichurri is a great sauce to know because it belongs to a group of uncooked condiments that touch so many cultures and dishes. If you can make chimichurri, you can make salsa verde and pesto. A rule of thumb is chimichurri is herbal, salsa verde is acidic and pesto is nutty. Choose the right sauce to pair perfectly with your protein or vegetable. Flank steak is a heavily used muscle but will grill amazingly. It's pleasantly chewy with great flavor.

Steps:
- Make the chimichurri sauce: Add all the sauce ingredients to a small food processor. Pulse 4 to 6 times, until the herbs are roughly chopped and chunky. Transfer to a serving bowl.
- Cook the steak: Pat the flank steak dry with a paper towel. Season generously with salt and a pinch of ground pepper. Place in a medium bowl and drizzle with the olive oil and soy sauce. Add the onion to the bowl and give it all a massage until combined.
- Heat a grill to high for at least 5 minutes. If using a charcoal or gas grill, wipe the grill grates with a lightly oiled paper towel right before cooking to clean off any char and debris. This will give you a great grill mark and help keep the beef from sticking. Alternatively, place a grill pan over high heat and preheat for at least 5 minutes. Rub a little oil on the pan or spray with nonstick cooking spray.
- Grill the steak for about 3 minutes, or until well browned on one side. Turn the steak over and add the onion to the grill. Cook for another 2 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 125 degrees F (52 degrees C) for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness (see Cook's Note). You just want the onions slightly charred but still crunchy. Transfer the steak and onions to a cutting board and allow to rest, tented with foil, for 5 minutes. Slice the steak against the grain into 1-inch (2.5-cm) planks. Serve the steak over the onions and drizzle with the chimichurri sauce.

Steps:
- In a shallow bowl, combine the sherry wine, sherry vinegar, red onions, garlic and olive oil. Stir. Lay the steak over the marinade and turn it over. Wrap loosely and refrigerate overnight. Remove the steak from the marinade and season with the salt and pepper. Grill the steak over high heat for 4 to 5 minutes per side. Let rest for 5 minutes before thinly slicing.
- Chimichurri sauce:.
- In the bowl of a food processor, combine the olive oil, sherry vinegar, lemon juice, parsley, basil, oregano, garlic and shallots. Pulse until well blended but do not puree. Add the black pepper, the salt and crushed red pepper flakes. Transfer the sauce to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap for at least 2 hours, and up to 6 hours at room temperature. Chimichurri sauce will keep refrigerated in a well sealed container for up to 3 days.
- For the yucca fries:.
- Place the vegetable oil in a 6-quart Dutch oven and heat to 325 degrees F using a candy thermometer to register the temperature.
- While the oil is heating, peel the yucca and cut into wedges about 5 inches long and 1-inch wide. Place the yucca wedges in ice water to soak. When the oil reaches the desired temperature, remove the yucca from the ice water and pat dry with kitchen towels. Fry in batches in the hot oil, being sure to raise the heat as you add the yucca. Fry the yucca until they are soft, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the oil using a slotted spoon and set aside on a paper-lined platter to drain. Repeat with the remaining yucca.
- Once all the yucca are fried, raise the temperature of the oil to 350 degrees F.
- Return the fried yucca to the oil and fry until crisp, golden brown, and puffed, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Remove the yucca fries from the oil using a slotted spoon and season with the salt and pepper. Repeat the process with the remaining yucca.
