Best Sunnys Rosemary Chimichurri Recipes

SUNNY'S BREAKFAST STEAK AND EGGS WITH CHIMICHURRI

Steps:

• For the chimichurri: Add the vinegar, olive oil, oregano, red chile flakes, garlic and parsley to a food processor. Season with salt and pepper and pulse gently until just chopped. Add half of the chimichurri to a plastic bag and reserve the rest for serving.
• For the steaks: Add the steaks to the bag with the chimichurri and make sure they are coated. Seal and rest at room temperature for 2 hours.
• Bring a grill pan to medium-high heat.
• Remove the steaks from the bag, making sure to remove as much chimichurri from them as possible. Season the steaks with salt and pepper. Grill on one side for 2 to 3 minutes, then flip and grill until the internal temperature is 125 degrees F for medium rare, 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove to a plate, cover and let rest for 10 minutes.
• For the eggs: Whisk the eggs with 2 teaspoons water in a large bowl until combined and frothy.
• Add the butter to a large nonstick pan over low heat and as it melts, tilt the pan to make sure the butter coats the bottom and sides. Pour the eggs into the pan and allow them to sit until a thin layer begins to set on the bottom and sides of the pan, about 30 seconds. Using a whisk, gently scrape the bottom and sides of the pan using a twisting motion to free any eggs attached to the corners and sides of the pan. Allow the eggs to rest again for another 30 seconds, then "scramble" again with the whisk. Repeat this step until the eggs are almost done but still wet, about 6 minutes total. Season with a pinch of salt and a grind of pepper. Remove the pan from the heat and continue to "scramble" them with the whisk to finish, about 30 more seconds. Serve with the rested steaks and reserved chimichurri.

SUNNY'S ROSEMARY MAPLE BOURBON PUNCH

Steps:

• For the punch: Add the maple syrup and rosemary to a small pot. Let steep over low heat for 20 minutes, then let cool. Remove the rosemary and pour the maple syrup into a pitcher. Add the apple cider, bourbon and lemon juice. Whisk to combine.
• To serve: Serve punch over ice with rosemary stalks and apple slices as garnish.

FLANK STEAK FAJITAS WITH CHIMICHURRI AND DRUNKEN PEPPERS

Steps:

• Make the chimichurri: In a food processor, combine the parsley, cilantro, garlic, red onion, paprika, vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth. Reserve half for drizzling on the fajitas. Place the remaining half in a large resealable plastic bag.
• Marinate the steak: Place the steak in the bag with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal. Rest at room temperature for up to 2 hours.
• Make the peppers: In a large straight-sided pan with a lid, heat the oil over medium-high heat. When the oil begins to swirl, add the poblano, bell, and jalapeno peppers, and the onion. Season with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until softened and slightly caramelized around the edges, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the beer, cover, and reduce the heat to medium. Cook until all the vegetables are plump and tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Grill the steak: Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium high. Remove the steak from the marinade and discard the marinade. Season the steak with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper on both sides. Grill the steak, flipping just once, until cooked to medium rare, 5 to 6 minutes per side. Transfer the steak to a plate, cover loosely with aluminum foil, and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
• Warm the tortillas: Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Wet your hands and rub each side of the tortillas with your hands, then stack the tortillas, wrap them tightly in aluminum foil, and place on the center rack of the oven until steamy, about 10 minutes ( or place them in a warmer).
• Assemble the fajitas: Slice the steak into thin slices on the bias, against the direction of the muscle. Place a few strips of meat on each warmed tortilla and top with the peppers. Drizzle the reserved chimichurri over the top and fold loosely like a soft taco.
