Chimichurri Sauce
Report
Chimichurri sauce is an amazing herby sauce made with fresh herbs, vinegar, olive oil, garlic, and more. Use it as a marinade or as a condiment for any animal protein!

Ingredients
- ½ cup fresh flat leaf parsley chopped*
- 1/2 cup fresh cilantro chopped*
- 1 shallot
- 1 jalapeno**
- 4 large cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 cup rice vinegar***
- 1 Tbsp fresh oregano chopped****
- 2/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp kosher salt
Instructions
- Chop the cilantro, shallot, jalapeno, garlic, and oregano, and add them to a small bowl or measuring cup.
- Pour in the rice vinegar and extra virgin olive oil and stir well until everything is combined. Stir in the sea salt and adjust the amount to your personal taste.
- Note: As an alternative to whisking everything in a small bowl, you can add the ingredients to a small food processor or a blender (like a nutribullet or a magic bullet) and blend until the sauce reaches your desired consistency.
- Use immediately as a marinade or a sauce for any cut of steak, chicken, pork, or fish, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Notes
- *Use all flat-leaf parsley if you prefer it over cilantro, or use all cilantro if you prefer.
- **You can use one fresno chili, a red jalapeno, or one to two serranos for a spicier sauce. Be sure to remove the seeds and insides for a mild sauce. You can also use ½ teaspoon of red pepper flakes instead of a chili
- ***Use red wine vinegar for the authentic traditional chimichurri sauce. I like the flavor of rice vinegar better.
- ****Use 1 ½ teaspoons of dried oregano if you don’t have fresh oregano.
- This recipe makes about 1.5 cups of sauce. You can easily halve the recipe or double it, depending on your needs.
