Notes
- For best results, marinate the flank steak overnight. If you are short on time, marinate for a minimum of two hours.
- Always slice flank steak against the grain. This helps make the steak tender to chew.
- Jalepeño seeds are what give the chimichurri sauce its kick. If you don't like heat, remove the seeds. If you do, add them to your chimichurri sauce.
