My love for Chimichurri Sauce runs deep! Having spent a larger part of my twenties working in an Argentinean Steak House, I fell in love with this flavorful sauce. I now enjoy it often with roasted potatoes or in the summer on grilled fish, vegetables or grilled meats. It’s such a flavorful sauce, it can really go well with so many things. The traditional Argentinean recipe is a little different but I have adapted this based on my preferences, adding in some cilantro and jalapeño for a little kick.

Notes

For a thicker sauce use less olive oil, and for a thinner sauce add a bit more! This can be stored in the fridge for up to 5 days, or you can freeze it for up to 6 months. 

This is my favorite food processor, and works like a charm.
