Wagyu Ribeye with Chimichurri and Charred Broccoli
-
The ribeye is the king of steaks – mainly due to its wonderful rich fat content which gives it that superb beefy flavor. Everyone has their own name for it, so look out for cube roll, scotch fillet or entrecote. Ribeye ‘doneness’ is personal but we recommend serving grass-fed Wagyu ribeye medium rare. Chimichurri is an uncooked green piquant herb sauce, often referred to as Argentinian barbeque sauce. It is the perfect accompaniment to pan seared or chargrilled ribeye steaks.
Ingredients
CHIMICHURRI
BROCCOLI
Cooking Method
- Bring steak to room temperature, brush with oil and season generously on both sides with salt. Heat a large skillet until hot.
- Cook steaks for approximately 2-3 minutes on each side or until caramelized, turning only once. Remove from skillet just before desired doneness is reached.
- Allow meat to rest in a warm place for 4 -5 minutes before serving with chimichurri.
Chimichurri
- Mix all ingredients together then season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper. Serve at room temperature. This will keep for 5 days in the fridge in an airtight container.
Broccoli
- Cut broccoli into small florets and place in a bowl.
- Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt to taste. Use hands to massage oil and salt into florets.
- Using the hot skillet that was used to cook the steak, cook broccoli in batches so that all florets are exposed to the surface of the skillet. Ensure skillet is very hot and allow broccoli to char. Turn florets 2-3 times to get color on multiple sides.
- Remove from heat and add a splash (approx. 2 tsp) water to the hot skillet. Place a lid on the skillet and allow the broccoli to steam for approx. 40 seconds (until it runs a bright green).
- Repeat with remaining florets until they are all cooked.
