Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
1/2 cup packed fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
2 tablespoons packed fresh cilantro leaves
1 tablespoon fresh oregano leaves
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 loaf ciabatta, halved horizontally

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a medium skillet over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add onion, and stir to coat. Cook, stirring, until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce heat to low, and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes more. Let cool.
  • Make chimichurri: Process onion, parsley, salt, vinegar, cilantro, oregano, lemon juice, garlic, pepper, cumin, cayenne, and 5 tablespoons oil in a food processor until ingredients are finely chopped and mixture comes together, about 15 seconds. Set aside.
  • Preheat a grill to medium-high (if using a charcoal grill, coals are ready when you can hold your hand 5 inches above grill for just 3 to 4 seconds). Using remaining 1/4 cup oil, brush cut sides of bread. Grill, cut sides down, without turning, until undersides are lightly charred, about 4 minutes. Cut each bread half crosswise into 3 pieces, and spread each piece with chimichurri.

I'm not a big fan of grilled bread, but this recipe changed my mind. The chimichurri sauce was also a nice touch. Overall, a great recipe!

This recipe is a keeper! The grilled bread was crispy and the chimichurri sauce was tangy and flavorful. I served it with grilled chicken and it was a perfect meal.
