1 bunch or 100g parsley
; substitute up to half the parsley with fresh herbs of your choice. Feel free to add extra herbs too. Oregano, cilantro, mint, rosemary or arugula can all work
55g or 1/4 cup olive oil
; use up to a 1/2 cup. A leaner cut of meat might benefit from more oil
2 tbsp red wine vinegar or lemon juice ; zest the lemon if using
2-3 cloves garlic
1-3 tsp of a fruity chili flake or fresh chilis, deseeded
1 tsp dried oregano
Truly Optional 1-3 tsp whole grain mustard; substitute dijon, or whole mustard seeds if making more than well in advance
1 tsp salt
Pepper
Ultimately this is just a 4:2:1 herb vinaigrette
This can go well on more than just steak. I like it for breakfast or in a salad
