For the Beef Filets:

  • 4 beef tenderloin filets (about 6 ounces each)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

For the Chimichurri Sauce:

  • 1 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped

  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  2. Prepare the Beef Filets: Pat the beef filets dry and brush with olive oil. Season with kosher salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
  3. Grill the Filets: Grill for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Rest the filets for 5 minutes.
