Ingredients for Sizzling Steak & Cheese Chimichurri Skillet

Instructions

  1. 1 Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Once hot, add the sliced ribeye steak in a single layer and season with salt and black pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes, allowing the steak to sear and develop a rich flavor.
  2. 2 Add the sliced red onion and bell pepper to the skillet. Stir occasionally, letting the vegetables soften and caramelize slightly, about 5 minutes. This step enhances the dish's texture and sweetness.
  3. 3 While the steak and vegetables are cooking, prepare the chimichurri sauce. In a bowl, combine the chopped parsley, cilantro, minced garlic, red wine vinegar, red chili flakes, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Slowly whisk in 1/4 cup of olive oil until well blended.
  4. 4 Once the steak is cooked to your desired doneness and the vegetables are tender, reduce the heat to low. Lay the provolone cheese slices over the steak and vegetables, allowing them to melt into a gooey, creamy layer.
  5. 5 Drizzle the chimichurri sauce over the cheesy steak and vegetables. Let it sit for a minute to meld the flavors together before serving.

Serving Suggestions

  • β€’ Serve this Sizzling Steak & Cheese Chimichurri Skillet with a side of crusty bread or a warm baguette to soak up the delightful juices and melted cheese. A simple green salad with a citrus vinaigrette can balance the richness of the dish. Pair it with a robust red wine like a Malbec or a cold craft beer to enhance the bold flavors.

Storage Tips

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place the skillet contents in a pan over medium heat until warmed through, or microwave it in short intervals, stirring occasionally. Add a splash of water or broth to prevent drying out during reheating.
