Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs beef short ribs (asado de tira), 2–3 inches thick
  • 1 cup fresh parsley, roughly chopped
  • ¼ cup red wine vinegar
  • 4 clove garlic cloves, minced
  • ½ tsp red pepper flakes
  • 1 lb waxy potatoes (Yukon Gold), peeled and halved
  • 4 cups mixed salad greens

Instructions

  1. 1

    Bring a pot of salted water to boil. Add potatoes and cook 12–15 minutes until fork-tender.

  2. 2

    While potatoes cook, pulse parsley, garlic, vinegar, red pepper flakes, 0.5 cup olive oil, and salt/pepper in a food processor until chunky. Set chimichurri aside.

  3. 3

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

  4. 4

    Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high until shimmering. Sear ribs 3 minutes per side without moving — surface should char golden brown.

  5. 5

    Drain potatoes and mash with butter, salt, and pepper to taste until creamy. Toss greens with salt, pepper, and 1 tbsp olive oil.

  6. 6

    Arrange ribs, mashed potatoes, and greens on a plate. Spoon chimichurri generously over the ribs. Serve immediately.
