Argentinian Chimichurri Recipe

Daniel Levine

Report

Argentinian Chimichurri sauce is a wonderful way to mix up your condiment routine. All at once citrusy, tart, garlicky, herby, and a tad bit spicy, this sauce makes a great marinade or topping for chicken, steak, fish, or pork as well as potatoes and vegetables.

Instructions

Combine all chimichurri ingredients in a blender or food processor, and pulse until smooth. (SEE NOTE)
Serve immediately, or can be stored (covered) at room temperature up to 24 hours before serving.

Notes

Makes about 1 cup of chimichurri sauce.
I prefer the resulting flavor and texture of the written method - to combine all ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth, however more traditional chimichurri sauce is simply stirred together with the oil being stirred in very last. A hybrid version can be made by pulsing all ingredients except for the oil, then stirring the oil in very last. All three variations are delicious!
