To make chimichurri sauce, combine all ingredients and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a bowl.
Preheat a chargrill pan or barbecue over medium–high heat. Brush steaks with oil, then season with salt and pepper. Cook steaks for 2 minutes each side for medium-rare or until cooked to your liking. Cover loosely with foil and rest for 5 minutes.
