Grilled Bread With Chimichurri Food

GRILLED BREAD WITH CHIMICHURRI

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a medium skillet over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add onion, and stir to coat. Cook, stirring, until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce heat to low, and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes more. Let cool.
• Make chimichurri: Process onion, parsley, salt, vinegar, cilantro, oregano, lemon juice, garlic, pepper, cumin, cayenne, and 5 tablespoons oil in a food processor until ingredients are finely chopped and mixture comes together, about 15 seconds. Set aside.
• Preheat a grill to medium-high (if using a charcoal grill, coals are ready when you can hold your hand 5 inches above grill for just 3 to 4 seconds). Using remaining 1/4 cup oil, brush cut sides of bread. Grill, cut sides down, without turning, until undersides are lightly charred, about 4 minutes. Cut each bread half crosswise into 3 pieces, and spread each piece with chimichurri.

GRILLED CHIMICHURRI SHRIMP WRAPS

Steps:

• Cook the fries according to the package instructions.
• Meanwhile, preheat a grill pan over a medium-high heat. Add the shrimp to a bowl along with the olive oil and toss. Sprinkle the shrimp with the steak seasoning. Grill the shrimp until plump and opaque, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove the shrimp from the grill, then add them to a bowl. Toss with the half of the chimichurri sauce. Set aside.
• Place the naan breads on the grill to warm and slightly char, about a minute per side.
• To build, divide and spread the aioli on the grilled naan. Divide the arugula, avocado, tomatoes and pickled onions between the two. Top with the shrimp, fries and remaining chimichurri.
• Lay two pieces of foil, slightly longer than the longest side of the naans, out on the counter. Place the naans so that two-thirds is on the foil and one-third is on the counter. Roll the naans from left to right and wrap the foil around the bottoms to keep the wraps neatly rolled.
• Serve immediately.
