Ingredients

Bistro Cut Filet: This is a smaller, leaner version of the traditional filet mignon, known for its tenderness and rich flavor. The filet is typically seasoned with salt and pepper before being grilled to your preferred level of doneness. The bistro cut offers the same quality and texture as a traditional filet but in a more manageable size, ideal for those looking for a smaller portion of beef.
Chimichurri Sauce: This sauce is made from fresh parsley, garlic, red wine vinegar, olive oil, and sometimes oregano or red pepper flakes. It’s a tangy, herby, and slightly spicy condiment that pairs wonderfully with grilled meats, especially steak, due to its ability to cut through the richness of the beef and enhance the natural flavors.
Seasonings: The steak itself is often seasoned with basic spices like salt, pepper, and sometimes garlic or herbs before grilling. The chimichurri sauce adds an extra layer of flavor, making the dish more complex and aromatic.

Recommendations

For a lighter option: To reduce calories and fat, request that the chimichurri sauce be served on the side so you can control the amount used. You can also pair the steak with a side of steamed vegetables or a house salad to keep the meal light but flavorful.
For a richer, indulgent meal: For a more indulgent experience, enjoy the chimichurri sauce liberally on the steak and pair the dish with heartier sides like garlic mashed potatoes, crispy Brussels sprouts, or seasoned rice. These sides complement the bold flavors of the chimichurri and the richness of the beef.
Wine Pairing: A Malbec or Cabernet Sauvignon would be an excellent choice to pair with the Bistro Cut Filet with Chimichurri, as the bold tannins in these wines complement the richness of the steak and balance the acidity of the chimichurri. A Zinfandel could also work, offering a fruit-forward flavor profile that complements the smokiness of the grilled meat and the tanginess of the sauce.
For a gluten-free option: The Bistro Cut Filet with Chimichurri can be a great choice for those following a gluten-free diet. Be sure to request the sauce on the side or confirm that no gluten is present in the chimichurri sauce. Pair with a side of steamed vegetables, seasonal vegetables, or a fresh salad.
For heart-healthy benefits: If you’re looking for a heart-healthier version of this dish, request the steak to be grilled with minimal oil and enjoy the chimichurri sauce on the side to control the fat content. Pair with a side of steamed vegetables or a house salad to add fiber without increasing fat and calories.
