Method

  1. 1

    Heat 5 g of olive oil in a pan over medium heat, add the diced yellow onion and sauté until translucent, about 3–4 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add 1 Tbsp minced garlic and sauté for 1–2 minutes, then stir in 1 Tbsp turmeric and a pinch of salt.

  3. 3

    Add the short‑grain rice, stir to coat, then pour in the chicken bone broth.

  4. 4

    Bring to a boil, cover the pan, reduce heat to low and simmer for 20–25 minutes until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.

  5. 5

    Remove from heat, keep the lid on and let the rice sit for 10 minutes, then fluff with a fork.

  6. 6

    In a slow cooker, combine the flank steak with 1.5 Tbsp salt, 2 tsp black pepper, 2 tsp garlic powder, 2 tsp oregano, 1 Tbsp minced garlic, 1 diced yellow onion, 30 g red wine vinegar, 15 g olive oil, and the puréed pineapple.

  7. 7

    Cook on the low setting for 6–8 hours until the meat is fork‑tender.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The steak yields easily to a fork. Check the thickest section for tenderness before removing it.

  8. 8

    While the steak cooks, prepare the chimichurri: whisk together 60 g olive oil, 60 g red wine vinegar, the chopped cilantro and parsley, 4 cloves minced garlic, 2 small red chilies (finely chopped), 1 tsp dried oregano, 1 tsp coarse salt, and ½ tsp pepper until well combined.

  9. 9

    When the steak is done, remove it from the slow cooker, slice into 4‑ounce portions, and drizzle each portion with the chimichurri sauce.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The sauce coats the sliced steak with visible herbs. Slice across the grain for more tender bites.

  10. 10

    Plate the sliced steak over a serving of the fluffy yellow rice and serve immediately.
