Ingredients

  • ½ lb flank steak, trimmed
  • ⅛ tsp salt
  • ⅛ tsp pepper
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil, divided
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 Tbsp white wine vinegar
  • 2 tsp chopped fresh oregano
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • ¼ tsp crushed red pepper (optional)
  • 2 burrito-size flour tortillas
  • ½ cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Sprinkle steak with salt and pepper. Cook steak in ½ Tbsp hot oil in a cast-iron skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat 4 to 5 minutes per side or to desired doneness. Remove from skillet. Let stand 5 minutes before thinly slicing across the grain.
  2. Meanwhile, process parsley, 1 Tbsp oil, vinegar, oregano, garlic, and, if desired, red pepper in a food processor or blender until finely chopped.
  3. Place tortillas on a greased rimmed baking sheet. Top with steak, cheese, and half of chimichurri sauce. Fold tortillas over filling; brush tortillas with ½ Tbsp oil.
  4. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until cheese melts and tortillas are lightly browned. Cut into wedges, and serve with remaining chimichurri sauce.
