Gene's Surf and Turf with Chimichurri Sauce

As I mentioned in the post featuring Barb’s Salmon and Asparagus, I also created a recipe for Barb’s husband, Gene. using the ingredients he chose for the hunting and gathering demo a Whole Foods Market. I changed up the recipe a bit by grilling the steak, shrimp, mushrooms and onion on skewers. It’s summertime fun all year round.
