(Courtesy of Fitness)

Ingredients:
3/4 c. finely diced strawberries
3/4 c. chopped parsley
3 tsp. chopped oregano
1 tsp. chopped thyme
1 small shallot, minced
1/4 c. extra-virgin olive oil
2 Tbsp. red wine vinegar
2 tsp. honey
3/4 tsp. kosher salt
3/4 tsp. black pepper
1 lb. skirt steak, trimmed
2 tsp. cumin
1/8-1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
1 Tbsp. chili powder
Nonstick cooking spray

Directions:
Soak 8-10 wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes.  Meanwhile, combine strawberries, the next 7 ingredients and 1/2 tsp. each salt and pepper in a medium bowl.

Cut steak crosswise into 2 equal pieces, then cut each piece lengthwise into 1-inch-wide strips (8-10 pieces) and place in a large bowl.  Add cumin, cayenne pepper, chili powder and remaining salt and pepper and toss well to coat.  Thread onto skewers.

Lightly coat a grill with cooking spray or line with foil, then heat to very high.  Place skewers on grill and cook 2-3 minutes a side for medium rare or until desired doneness depending on thickness.  Transfer to a cutting board; let rest 5 minutes.  Serve with half of the chimichurri (refrigerate the remainder for up to 3 days).
