Ingredients
4 (1½ inch thick) shell, sirloin, or rib-eye steaks
½ cup freshly squeezed lime juice
1/3 cup dry red wine
1 small onion, finely chopped
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 teaspoons dried oregano

1 teaspoon coarse salt
1 small white onion, finely diced
4 large garlic cloves, chopped
Juice of 3 limes
½ bunch Italian parsley, leaves only, chopped
Notes: Preserved malagueta peppers are one of the hallmarks of Brazilian cooking. These tiny, extremely hot peppers are pickled in a 2:1 oil to grain alcohol mixture and allowed to sit for 1 month before using. They are available in some Latin American markets, or substitute your favorite pickled hot chiles.
