…from the Perspectives’ Kitchen![]() How you doin’? Grilled steak is one of summer’s most effortless meals, and my recipe has the perfect balance of smoky char and herbal brightness. I marinate a tri-tip in tamari, toasted whole coriander and cumin and lots of lime. I like the rich, fermented soy and earthy cumin combination that brings out the savory meatiness defining this cut of steak. The acid from the lime brightens things up and tenderizes the meat so it cooks up juicy with a buttery texture. I also grind up some of the toasted coriander and cumin seeds to make a rub for the steaks. On the grill, the tamari and spices char up, creating a lovely crust on the steak. It seals in the meat’s juices and flavor, but it also adds some great texture and a warm counterpoint to the chimichurri. My chimichurri is made with cilantro, garlic, shallots, fresh red jalapeño, lime and a little honey. It’s a departure from the classic Argentinian recipe, but it’s got all the herb-acid-heat you’d expect, and it adds the perfect touch of super zippy and refreshing flavors. Prep Time: 10-15 minutes Marinade time: 4-12 hours Grilled time: 25-30 minutes Dwell time: 10 minutes Yield: 4 to 6 servings Ingredients For the steak 2 tablespoons coriander seeds 1 tablespoon cumin seeds 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice 2 tablespoons low-sodium tamari 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil 3 pounds prime tri-tip 1 teaspoon kosher salt 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 1 tablespoon peanut oil, for brushing For the lime chimichurri 1-1/2 cups finely chopped fresh cilantro, 1 tablespoon minced shallot 1 stemmed, seeded, and minced red jalapeño 1 tablespoon grated or pressed garlic 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice 1/4 teaspoon honey 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil Directions
