Spicy Chimichurri Sauce
Report
Fresh, herbaceous, and spicy, this fiery Spicy Chimichurri Sauce is just begging to be served on top of grilled proteins. And fellow cilantro-haters will appreciate this no cilantro parsley chimichurri.

Ingredients
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 bunch fresh Italian parsley (around 1 to 1 ½ cups, packed)
- ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
- ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 2 Serrano peppers
- ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
Instructions
- Remove the stems from the parsley. Cut the stems off of the serrano peppers. *I buzz the seeds and pith right into the chimichurri to maximize the spice. If you prefer, remove the seeds and pith from the serrano peppers.
- Add all of the ingredients to a food processor or blender, and puree for 20 seconds.
- Remove lid, scrape down sides, and puree for another 5-10 seconds.
- For best results, wait at least 2 hours before use to let the flavors develop.

- Don't taste the sauce right away. I think freshly made chimichurri resembles the taste of grass clippings. It NEEDS time to sit before it tastes truly awesome. I recommend tasting after 2 hours to see if you’re pleased with the level of heat, if you need to add a pinch more salt, etc.
