2. Preheat grill to high. Let the steak come to room temperature. Remove it from the marinade and season with salt and pepper. Grill for 4 to 5 minutes on one side until browned, turn, and grill another 4 to 5 minutes for medium-rare doneness. Remove from the grill, let the meat rest for 10 minutes, and slice thinly on the bias. Serve with the remaining chimichurri on the side.
