Rough-cut steak kebabs with blistered vegetables and loosely spooned chimichurri — **TooGut pick**Flexible, practical, genuinely delicious.

Chimichurri is better chopped than blended: visible pieces of herb, garlic and chilli stay bright and cling to the meat. Choose a tender steak and keep the pieces similar in mass, not mathematically identical.

One step at a time

Let’s cook.

Tick each step as you go. Built-in timers keep the important moments close.

Chop, do not purée

Stir parsley, garlic, chilli, vinegar, chimichurri oil and a good pinch of salt. Leave the herbs visibly uneven.

Build the kebabs

Toss beef and vegetables with oil, salt and pepper. Thread onto eight skewers with breathing room between pieces.

Sear over high heat

Barbecue for 7 to 9 minutes, turning each skewer as its faces brown, for medium-rare beef and blistered vegetables.

Rest before saucing

Rest on a warm platter for 5 minutes. Spoon half the chimichurri over in rough patches so some char remains visible.

Serve with extra sharpness

Taste the remaining chimichurri and add vinegar or salt if needed. Serve it at the table.
