2 bags (18 oz. each) GOYA® Frozen Yuca

1½ tsp. GOYA Salt

2 tbsp. GOYA Extra Virgin Olive Oil

1 tbsp. GOYA Minced Garlic

1½ tsp. GOYA Adobo All-Purpose Seasoning with Pepper

GOYA Adobo All-Purpose Seasoning with Pepper, to taste

1 jar (7.5 oz.) GOYA Chimichurri Sauce

Directions

2. In large bowl, using potato masher, mash yuca with reserved water, olive oil, garlic and adobo until smooth and combined; cover with foil to keep warm.
3. Meanwhile, heat oil in medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions; cook until soft and translucent, about 10 minutes. Add sazón and garlic; cook until fragrant, about 15 seconds more. Remove sauce from heat; cover with foil to keep warm.
4. For the meat, cut steak into four portions; season on all sides with adobo. Prepare grill to medium high heat, or heat grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook until golden brown on both sides and cooked to desired doneness (about 6 minutes for medium rare). Let rest 5 minutes.
5. To serve, divide warm mashed yuca mixture among serving plates; drizzle with warm garlic sauce. Divide steak among serving plates; top with chimichurri.
