Notes

Chimichurri sauce can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to 3 weeks. However, it is best served within 24-48 hours for freshness.
Freeze chimichurri sauce in individual cubes using an ice tray. Once solid frozen, you can transfer to a freezer bag. Thaw and bring to room temperature before using.
