I’ve mentioned before the marinade actually doesn’t penetrate far into the meat, regardless of how long you marinate the meat for. The reason I like to do it is because you get that nice sauce onto the steak and as you grill it, it forms a super tasty crust, it’s really good. Which is all that a marinade really does, it’s a surface treatment. The best part is, of course, dipping your quesadilla in that reserved chimichurri sauce. It really is a must because it adds a lot of flavor to your quesadillas. You can also add some to your quesadillas as you assemble them which will add that much more flavor.
