Chimichurri (Argentinean Parsley and Garlic Sauce) image

This is a regular condiment on every table in Argentina. It is drizzled on everything from grilled meats to potatoes and vegetables. This is similar to a version I had in an Argentinean restaurant. Some versions also include red pepper flakes, so feel free to add them on occasion.

This chimichurri sauce is the perfect balance of flavors. It's tangy, garlicky, and just a little bit spicy.
