Time 5m

Yield 1 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 bunch parsley, roughly chopped
8 garlic cloves, crushed
1 teaspoon oregano
2 tablespoons paprika (optional)
1/4-1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Tips:

  • Fresh ingredients: Use fresh parsley, garlic, and cilantro for the best flavor.
  • Chop the herbs finely: This will help the chimichurri sauce to be more flavorful and easier to mix with the olive oil.
  • Use a good quality olive oil: The olive oil is the base of the chimichurri sauce, so it's important to use a good quality oil.
  • Taste the sauce and adjust the seasonings: The chimichurri sauce should be flavorful, but not too salty or tart. Add more salt, pepper, or lemon juice to taste.
  • Let the sauce sit for at least 30 minutes before using: This will allow the flavors to meld together.
  • Serve the sauce at room temperature: This will help the flavors to shine through.

Conclusion:

Chimichurri is a versatile sauce that can be used to add flavor to a variety of dishes. It's especially popular with grilled meats, but it can also be used on vegetables, fish, and even pasta. With its fresh, herbaceous flavor, chimichurri is a great way to add a touch of Argentina to your next meal.
