Ingredients​

1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
Kosher salt
1 red onion, thinly sliced
1 bunch cilantro, roughly chopped
1 pound flank steak, trimmed
1 clove garlic
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing
Freshly ground pepper

Directions​

  1. Make the pickled red onion: Combine the cider vinegar, sugar and 1 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl and whisk to dissolve. Add the red onion and 2 tablespoons cilantro and stir to combine. Cover and set aside at room temperature, 1 hour.
  2. Meanwhile, soak 20 wooden skewers in warm water, at least 20 minutes. Slice the flank steak against the grain into 20 strips, about 1/8 inch thick. Thread the meat accordion-style onto the skewers and set aside until ready to grill.
  3. Combine the remaining cilantro, the garlic, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the olive oil in a blender and puree until smooth; transfer to a small bowl.
  4. Heat a grill or grill pan to medium high. Season the steak with salt and pepper. Brush the grill with olive oil, then grill the skewers until marked, about 1 minute per side. Serve with the chimichurri and pickled onion.


This was dinner tonight. DH also grilled scallops for me. Everything was very good.

Click on the link, that picture is better than anything I could post. lol

Actually, I did try to post a picture DH took, but the darn thing would not work. I don't know what is going on.:confused:

All That matters to me is that everything DID taste very good. You know what is strange? I enjoyed the onions more than anything else. Weird, right?
