Authentic Chimichurri is from Uruguay and Argentina. It’s best on Steak or Fish Tacos – Great in a Salad, can be used as a Marinade and on Garlic Bread!
Ingredients
- 1 cup (packed) fresh parsley
- ¾ cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 3 to 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1/4 cup fresh oregano, finely chopped (2 tablespoons dried)
- ¼ cup of red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon of kosher salt
- Freshly ground pepper to taste
- Half squeezed fresh lemon or lime
- 2 teaspoons crushed red pepper (optional)
- 1 teaspoon seasons salt (I prefer Everglades Seasoning)
Preparation
- Wash the parsley and remove the thick stems.
- Combine parsley, garlic, oregano, red pepper, into a food processor or blender for best results. If you do not have access to one, just be sure to mince everything up. Process until medium to small size bits to really get the flavor.
- In a medium size bowl combine olive oil, vinegar, squeezed juice from the lime or lemon, seasoning, salt and pepper and whisk together.
- Mix in your freshly blended medley from your food processor
