Preheat oven to 400°F. Trim fat from steaks. Pat steaks dry with paper towels. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and the freshly ground black pepper over all sides of steaks; set aside. Coat a large oven-going grill pan or skillet lightly with cooking spray. Heat over medium-high heat; reduce heat to medium. Add steaks; cook about 4 minutes or until browned, turning once halfway through cooking time. Transfer pan to oven. Roast for 10 to 13 minutes or until medium-rare doneness (an instant-read thermometer registers 145°F when inserted in centers of steaks). Transfer steaks to a serving platter. Cover with foil; let stand for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, for chimichurri, in a food processor or blender combine cilantro, parsley, vinegar, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, the cumin, and the crushed red pepper. With processor or blender running, slowly add oil in a thin steady stream through opening in lid, blending until mixture is smooth. Serve chimichurri with steaks.
