Easy Cilantro Sauce
Report
This cilantro sauce tastes like it's from a restuarant, but it's made healthy with less oil. It's perfect for drizzling on tacos, nachos, burrito bowls, salads, and more.

Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh cilantro (tightly packed; 21 grams)
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar (25 grams)
- 1 shallot (24 grams)
- 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (1 gram)
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil (53 grams)
- 1/4 cup water (60 grams)
- 1/2 teaspoon fine Himalayan salt (I use Real Salt brand)
- 1 garlic clove (3 grams)
- freshly ground black pepper , to taste
Instructions
- Add all of the ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth. Taste and adjust the seasoning to your liking.
- This sauce will be runny when you first blend it, but it will thicken up in the fridge slightly if you let it chill for several hours. You can keep it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days, or freeze it for up to 3 months.

Notes
- Try to use mostly the cilantro leaves, not the thicker stems towards the bottom of the bunch. If you want to change-up the sauce, try adding in a handful of fresh parsley or basil, too.
