Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (8 oz) sirloin or flank steak
  • Salt & pepper to season
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 cup chimichurri sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 large sweet potato, cut into fries
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (for fries)
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cup arugula
  • 1 tsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • Salt & cracked black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prep the Sweet Potato Fries: Toss sweet potato strips with olive oil, cornstarch, and a pinch of salt. Air fry or oven-bake at 425°F for 20–25 mins until crispy.
  2. Cook the Steak Perfectly: Season steak with salt and pepper, sear in hot olive oil 3–4 mins per side for medium-rare. Let rest, then slice.
  3. Make the Tomato Arugula Salad: Combine halved cherry tomatoes and arugula. Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
  4. Add the Chimichurri Magic: Spoon chimichurri sauce over the steak slices.
  5. Plate & Serve It Up: Serve steak, fries, and salad on a large plate. Sprinkle cracked pepper over everything.

Notes

  • Use store-bought chimichurri for convenience.
  • Adjust steak cooking time for desired doneness.
  • Sweet potato fries can be baked or air-fried.
