This grilled tri-tip with chimichurri is a vibrant and flavourful dish that brings a touch of South American flair to your barbecue. The beef is rubbed with a smoky sesame crust before being grilled to succulent perfection, offering a sophisticated alternative to standard celebratory steaks. The brightness of the fresh herbs and red wine vinegar in the sauce cuts beautifully through the richness of the meat, ensuring every bite is perfectly balanced.
As a diabetes-friendly main course, this recipe focuses on lean protein and heart-healthy olive oil, using a small amount of agave nectar to balance the acidity without causing significant blood sugar spikes. It is a wonderful choice for a healthy outdoor lunch or a high-protein dinner, paired simply with grilled courgettes or a crisp green salad.

Ingredients for Tri-Tip with Chimichurri
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
2 tablespoons plus 120ml olive oil
2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper, plus more
900g tri-tip steak or two 450g sirloin steaks
2 garlic cloves, finely grated
2 cups finely chopped parsley
1/2 cup finely chopped coriander
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon agave nectar
How to make Tri-Tip with Chimichurri
Mix sesame seeds, paprika, 2 tablespoons oil, 2 teaspoons salt, and 2 teaspoons pepper in a small bowl to combine. Rub all over steak and let sit at room temperature 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare a grill for medium-high, indirect heat (for a charcoal grill, bank coals on one side of grill; for a gas grill, leave one or two burners off). Place steak over indirect heat, cover grill, and grill, turning once, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of steak registers 46°C, 20–30 minutes. Move steak to direct heat and grill until lightly charred, about 2 minutes per side, or until an instant-read thermometer registers 49°C for medium-rare (temperature will continue to rise off heat). Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes before slicing against the grain.
While steak is resting, combine garlic, parsley, coriander, vinegar, agave nectar, and remaining 120ml oil; season with salt and pepper. Serve steak with chimichurri.
