About the Recipe:  Chimichurri sauce is a zesty marinade or sauce made with parsley or cilantro. It uses lots of garlic, olive oil, vinegar, and chili peppers. The fresh flavor is like a barbecue herb sauce and adds a spicy flavor to the grilled steak. A tasty addition is Pepper Jack Potatoes, flavored with sweet and spicy peppers.

Heat oven to 400 degrees F.

Before Baking Potatoes:  Scrub potatoes; pierce deeply several places with a fork. Put potatoes directly on oven rack in preheated oven; bake until tender in center when poked with a knife.  Remove from oven; cool until can be handled.

Mashing Potatoes: Cut cooked potatoes lengthwise in half.  Scoop out flesh into a bowl; using a potato masher, mash potatoes with butter; add milk and crumbles of cheese; stir into a creamy consistency or leave them a little chunky, season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Double Baking Potatoes: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Restuff two of the potato skins halves with mashed potatoes; mound the potato into the skins.  Place on foil lined baking pan.  Bake in preheated 375 degrees F oven for 15 minutes. Before serving, place under the broiler several minutes to brown the top.

To Serve:  With a small sharp knife, make several cuts into the brown potato top; drizzle any steak juices carefully into the cuts.

Serves:  2
