Ingredients:
500 grams (about 1.1 pounds) culotte steak
½ bottle (375 ml) of good red wine
5 ml (1 teaspoon) salt
5 ml (1 teaspoon) pepper
Dry Spice Mix: 10 ml (2 teaspoons) chili flakes, 15 ml (1 tablespoon) oregano, 5 ml (1 teaspoon) salt
8 large boiled potatoes

For Chimichurri:
120 ml (½ cup) olive oil

80 ml (1/3 cup) finely chopped coriander (cilantro)
5 garlic cloves, minced
Juice of ½ lemon
1 chili, finely chopped
45 ml (3 tablespoons) cherry vinegar
A pinch of salt
Instructions:
Marinate the culotte steak in red wine, salt, and pepper. Slow cook in the oven or covered pot at 85°C (185°F) for about 3 hours until tender.
Rub the dry spice mix onto the steak before grilling.
Grill the steak over high heat to create a crust and glaze, then move it to a cooler part of the grill to rest.
Season boiled potatoes with olive oil and salt, then grill for crispy skin.
Grill zucchinis briefly and keep warm on the grill.
Prepare the chimichurri by mixing olive oil, parsley, coriander, minced garlic, lemon juice, chili, cherry vinegar, and salt.
Arrange the grilled potatoes and zucchinis on a serving tray, spread a layer of chimichurri on top.
Thinly slice the rested steak and layer it over the potatoes.
Finish with a sprinkle of salt, halved radishes, a drizzle of olive oil, and chopped parsley.
