A flavorful and easy-to-make grilled beef recipe inspired by Brazilian churrasco, served with a vibrant herb sauce.
Combine the lemon juice, salt, and minced garlic in a mixing bowl.
Use freshly squeezed lemon juice for the best flavor.
Place the beef tenderloin in the marinade, ensuring it is fully coated, and refrigerate overnight.
Turn the beef occasionally to ensure even marination.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Ensure the grill grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.
Grill the beef, turning frequently, until it reaches your desired level of doneness.
Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature for perfect doneness.
In a bowl, mix the crushed red pepper flakes, chopped onion, cilantro, and olive oil to make the sauce.
Adjust the spice level by adding more or less red pepper flakes.
Serve the grilled beef with the prepared sauce drizzled on top.
Garnish with additional fresh cilantro for a vibrant presentation.
