STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
1. In a bowl, combine parsley, cilantro, minced garlic, and red wine vinegar.
💡 Flow tip: Chop herbs by hand for a rustic texture rather than using a processor.
2. Whisk in the infused olive oil slowly until the chimichurri emulsifies slightly.
💡 Flow tip: Add a pinch of red chili flakes to enhance the peppery Caryophyllene notes.
3. Season Wagyu with sea salt and flash-sear on a cast iron skillet over high heat.
💡 Flow tip: Wagyu fat melts fast; 1 minute per side is usually enough for medium-rare.
4. Rest the meat for 5 minutes before slicing against the grain into thin strips.
💡 Flow tip: Resting ensures the juices redistribute for maximum tenderness.
5. Assemble tacos with meat, a generous drizzle of infused chimichurri, and pickled onions.
💡 Flow tip: Serve with a lime wedge to brighten the overall flavor profile.
