Ingredients

  • ½ cup finely chopped flat leaf parsley leaves
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh oregano leaves or 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped red chili pepper (from one small chili pepper) or ½ teaspoon dried red pepper flakes
  • 3 to 4 garlic cloves finely chopped
  • ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Chop the dry ingredients. Finely chop the parsley, oregano, chili pepper, and garlic. Alternatively, you can pulse the ingredients in a food processor (but see my note above on why I think hand chopping is best!). Then place the chopped ingredients in a small bowl.
  2. Stir everything together. Add the olive oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper. Stir together and serve immediately or store in the fridge (see storage instructions above).

Notes

  • Each serving is about 3 tablespoons.
