Strain, return to pot, and cover until serving.Step 2    Slice/quarter bell peppers and zucchini into bite-sized pieces. Toss in olive oil, smoked paprika and salt and pepper, and spread evenly over a parchment lined baking sheet. Roast vegetables at 350° for 15-20 minutes, turning once. Vegetables are ready when softened, and lightly charred.Step 3    Finely chop parsley, and mince garlic. Combine all chimichurri ingredients, stirring until well emulsified. You may add extra vinegar or oil to your taste.Step 4    Season room-temperature steaks generously with salt and pepper. You may also add a pinch of cayenne or chili powder for a spicy kick. Barbecue or pan-fry steaks by searing meat on high for 2 minutes per side, followed by covering and reducing to medium-low for a further 6 minutes. Steaks are a perfect medium-rare when the internal temperature reaches 130-135°. For medium steaks, cook a further 2-4 minutes until internal temperature reaches 140°-145°.Step 5    Thinly slice steak and serve with vegetables over pasta, generously ladling chimichurri sauce over each dish.

Serve with crusty bread for dredging up every last bit of chimichurri sauce, and red wine to complement the steak!
