8 skewers (wooden or metal)
Instructions

3. Soak wooden skewers in water if using.
4. Thread steak cubes onto skewers, spacing slightly.
5. Preheat grill to medium-high and grill skewers for 3-4 minutes per side.

Notes
Resting the meat after grilling helps juices redistribute.
Use metal skewers for ease and no soaking.
Double the chimichurri and save extra for dipping or salads.
