Steak with Chimichurri Sauce
Steak with chimichurri sauce and roasted garlic on the side is a winning pairing and this restaurant quality dish is surprisingly simple to make at home. You just need some good quality ingredients to make the sauce - Agora has me covered with their excellent olive oil, dried oregano and sea salt. I also used their new flavored sea salt flakes to season the steak.
