Upgrade your backyard BBQ with a unique and flavorful steak dish with a sauce that can pair with just about anything.

Think Chimichurri meets pesto...with a Thai twist! We blend jalapeños, garlic, fish sauce, lime, and LOTS of herbs. Then, top it on seasoned, grilled flank steak. The saltiness of the Thai Basil Sauce balances with the natural richness of steak (or any other protein you decide on). The best part? It can all be done in one bowl - so there is little to no mess involved.
