Skirt Steak with Chimichurri Sauce from the Hudson River Cafe (NY)

Ingredients:

For marinade:
1 cup vegetable oil
1 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon cumin
1 tablespoon fresh chopped garlic
4 tablespoons pureed, canned chipotle chiles

For steak:
2 pounds skirt steak
For chimichurri sauce:
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
3/4 cup olive oil
Juice of 2 lemons
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley, no stems
1 teaspoon chopped fresh cilantro, no stems
Pinch of red pepper flakes
Salt and pepper to taste

Method:
Combine all marinade ingredients in large shallow bowl. Place meat
in marinade for 15 minutes. Prepare sauce by combining all
ingredients in a medium bowl. Heat an oiled, well-seasoned grill
over high heat until hot but not smoking. Grill steak, turning
occasionally, for about 2 minutes per side for thin pieces or 4 to
6 minutes per side for thicker pieces (medium-rare). Portion onto 4
dinner plates. Drizzle with the chimichurri sauce.
