Description

Chimichurri, a fresh and vibrant Argentinian sauce, is a quick and easy way to add some flavor and color into your meal rotation.


Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ head baby butter lettuce
  • 1 ½  cups fresh parsley
  • 1 cup fresh cilantro
  • ½ cup fresh mint
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • Juice of ½ lemon (12 Tbsp, adjust to taste)
  • 1 large clove of garlic, peeled and roughly chopped
  • 1 medium shallot, roughly chopped
  • ½ tsp coarse salt
  • ¼ tsp freshly-cracked pepper
  • Pinch of red pepper flakes  to garnish *optional

Instructions

  1. Place all ingredients in a high-powered blender or food processor and blend or pulse until well combined. You can blend until you get a full puree or stop earlier at a chunkier consistency.

Notes

The cilantro can be easily omitted or you can substitute for more mint and parsley or replace with another herb like basil, celery leaves or dill, or any leafy green – think spinach, butter lettuce or arugula
