Receta Tex-Mex Churrasco Steak with Two South American Sauces
Churrasco, in general, is a thin steak or beef skirt steak that is marinated, grilled, and sliced.
I am including two South American Sauces, one which is famous, chimichurri, and another from Brazil, mohlo campanha.
If you like your beef well done, best to choose a highly marbled meat, such as rib-eye.
Ingredientes
- 3 lbs. skirt steak, or rib-eye, or filet mignon (butterflied)
- Tex-Mex mojo marinade:
- 3/4 cup olive oil
- 3/4 cup orange juice
- 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
- 10 smashed garlic cloves
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 2 tsp Mexican oregano
- 1/2 tbs. cumin
- 1 tbs. Diablo Dust or taco seasoning
- Chimichurri Sauce - see recipe links
- Molho Campanha:
- 1 can hearts of palm, drained, chopped
- 1 small bell pepper, seeded, chopped
- 4 ripe tomatoes, seeded, chopped
- 1 jalapeno, seeded, chopped
- 1/4 cup cilantro leaves, chopped
- 2 tbs. EVOO
- 2 tbs. red wine vinegar
- 1/2 tsp. salt
Direcciones
- Marinate the meat in the refrigerator fro 10-12 hours. Discard marinade.
- Fire up the grill for direct heat.
- Prepare the sauce you are going to serve by combining ingredients together. Leave at room temp.
- Grill steaks to desired doneness.
- If using skirt steak, be careful not to grill it much more than 4 minutes each side, then check for doneness. It toughens when cooked too long, and is best served medium rare to medium.
- Let beef rest 10 minutes.
- Slice thin against the grain.
- Serve with sauce.
