Creative Chimichurri Steak and Sweet Potato Bowl

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 400°F. Wash and chop sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Toss with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet. Roast for 25-30 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized.

   While sweet potatoes roast, prepare the chimichurri. In a food processor, combine parsley, cilantro, garlic, red wine vinegar, red pepper flakes, 1 teaspoon salt, and 0.5 teaspoon black pepper. Pulse until finely chopped. With the processor running, slowly drizzle in the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil until combined. Set aside.

   Pat the flank steak dry and season generously with the remaining 0.5 teaspoon salt and 0.5 teaspoon black pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear steak for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, adjusting time for desired doneness. Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing against the grain.
