    Thanks Beli
    Where is chimichurri from? Your part of the world or more south?
    It is so light and a good taste to it.

    Chimichurri Steak Kebabs ((Org Post by NibbleMeThis))
    Servings: 2 (4-5 kebabs)

    1 ea ribeye steak, cut into 1" cubes (I used sirloin)
    1 ea red bell pepper, seeded and cut into 1" cubes
    1 ea yellow bell pepper, seeded and cut into 1" cubes
    ( I added red onion)
    Chimichurri Marinade
    Source: adapted from Planet Barbecue!

    3 cloves garlic, minced (I used 6)
    1 teaspoon kosher salt (coarse ground)
    1/2 teaspoon black pepper, fresh coarse ground
    2 tablespoons crumbled dried oregano
    1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (use 2 for heat)
    2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
    1 tablespoon lime juice
    2 tablespoons cilantro, fresh chopped (Used lots more)
    1/4 cup olive oil

    Cilantro Lime Rice
    Source: Adapted from Annie's Eats

    1/2 cup long grain rice
    1 cups water
    1/2 tsp. salt
    1/4 cup fresh cilantro, very finely diced
    1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
    1 tbsp. olive oil
    1 clove garlic, very finely minced

    Make the marinade first. Put the garlic in a mortar and pestle, top with salt, black pepper, red pepper, and oregano. Now crush, muddle, grind (whatever you want to call it) to mix it all into a paste. Note: My oregano was crumbled dried oregano from our garden. If using ground oregano from the store, use about 1 Tbsp. Add the cilantro. Whisk in the vinegar and lime juice. Then slowly whisk in the oil to emulsify it like you would a vinaigrette.

    Pour over the steak and pepper pieces in a zip top back, coat well and marinate it for at least 1 hour.

    After the marinating time, assemble the kebabs alternating pepper and steak with 4-5 pieces of steak on each kebab.

    While that is preheating, start your rice. Basically cook it according to package directions using the rice, water and salt. This should take about 18-20 minutes.

    Once you have the rice started and covered, start your Egg set up for direct heat at 450f.

    Whisk together the cilantro, lime juice, garlic, and oil. Just as the rice is finished, mix in the cilantro mixture and cook another 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat and leave covered while you cook the kebabs.
