Directions
  • Make the Chimichurri (5 min)
    Finely chop ½ cup fresh parsley and 2 Tbsp fresh oregano. In a bowl whisk them with:
    • 2 cloves garlic, minced
    • ½ tsp red-pepper flakes
    • 3 Tbsp red-wine vinegar
    • ½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
    • Pinch of kosher salt & black pepper
      Let the sauce sit 15 min so the flavors marry.
  • Season the steak (2 min)
    Pat 1½ lb skirt steak very dry. Rub both sides with 1 tsp kosher salt and ½ tsp black pepper.
  • Pre-heat and grill (8–10 min)
    • Heat grill to high (≈500 °F / 260 °C); oil the grates.
    • Grill steak 3 min per side for medium-rare (target 130–135 °F internal). If the piece is thick, give it an extra minute.
    • Transfer to a cutting board and rest 5 min.
  • Slice and assemble
    • Slice steak thinly across the grain.
    • Lay slices in butter-lettuce leaves (about 8–10 cups).
    • Spoon generous chimichurri over the meat and add a few strands of pickled red onion for pop.
      Serve immediately—hands-on, taco-style.
