Chimichurri sauce - an Argentinian favorite - is the epitome of fresh. It goes great as a marinade for skirt steak or flank steak, and can double as a sauce after grilling (but never use the same sauce that you used to marinate the beef unless it's been boiled nonstop for 3 minutes to kill bacteria). 

Okay, so we're better at beef than we are at directing films, but we had so much fun making this how-to video nonetheless. Enjoy!
