  • 2 cloves garlic Minced for flavoring the sauce.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Season the steak generously with salt and pepper, then let it rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
  3. While the steak rests, finely chop the fresh parsley and garlic.
  4. In a bowl, combine the parsley, garlic, olive oil, balsamic vinegar or lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Mix well to create the sauce.
Grilling
  1. Place the seasoned steak on the grill and cook for approximately 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare.
  2. Continue flipping the steak until it reaches your desired level of doneness, reaching a beautifully charred crust.
Final Steps
  1. Once cooked, let the steak rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute.
  2. Drizzle the parsley sauce over the sliced steak and garnish with extra herbs if desired.

Notes

Ensure your grill is well-preheated to avoid sticking. Use a meat thermometer for accurate doneness and allow steak to rest before cutting.
