Nicaraguan-Style Churrasco

  1. To make the chimichurri, combine the garlic, bay leaves, jalapenos, and salt in a mortar and mash with a pestle until a smooth paste is formed (or you can puree with a small amount of vinegar in a blender)).
  2. Transfer to a mixing bowl and add the parsleys and oregano.
  3. Whisk in the vinegar and olive oil until well combined.
  4. Set aside.
  5. Prepare a medium-hot fire in the grill.
  6. Trim the meat and remove any silverskin.
  7. Cut into 2 1/2-inch-thick rounds.
  8. Take the boning knife and cut in a circular motion so each round becomes one flat, long strip.
  9. Then, with a butcher's mallet, pound the meat lightly.
  10. Season each strip generously with salt and pepper on each side.
  11. Lightly oil the grate and place meat on the grate.
  12. Grill for 3 minutes on each side for medium-rare.
  13. Transfer the meat to a serving plate.
  14. Serve with the chimichurri on the side.
