Ingredients

  • 1.5 lb beef short ribs (asado de tira), 2 inches thick
  • ½ lb fresh chorizo (Argentine-style)
  • ½ lb morcilla (blood sausage)
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley, roughly chopped
  • 3 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 3 clove fresh garlic cloves, minced

Instructions

  1. 1

    Pat the short ribs dry with paper towels. Season generously on both sides with salt and black pepper.

    Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.

  3. 3

    Sear the short ribs 3–4 minutes per side without moving until edges are deeply browned and caramelized.

  4. 4

    Push ribs to the side. Add chorizo and morcilla to the pan, sear 3–4 minutes, turning occasionally until browned.

  5. 5

    Whisk vinegar and minced garlic together. Stir parsley into the mixture. Drizzle over the meat just before serving.

  6. 6

    Slide everything onto a plate or cutting board. Serve hot with crusty bread and the chimichurri drizzle.
