New York Strip Steak With Kalamata-Olive Chimichurri

DH and I made this recipe from Feb 2009 Bon Appetit and thought it was really good. The recipe recommends using grass-fed steak and to serve the steak rare. Prep time includes time for the steak to rest.

Served this at a family gathering and even the olive haters loved it! One thing to note, we way increased the serving size even though there was 8 of us and its a good thing we did...we all wanted lots and lots of the chimuchurri. It was also tried with the potatoes and some baked halibut. All with exceptional results. Will certainly make again. Thanks for sharing. Made for ZWT6 Seasoned Sailor and his Sassy Sirens.
