Ingredients:

  • 1 cup fresh parsley leaves (packed)
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves (packed)
  • 4 garlic cloves
  • 2 tablespoons fresh oregano leaves (or 2 teaspoons dried)
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. Prep the Herbs:

    • Finely chop the parsley, cilantro, and oregano. Alternatively, you can use a food processor to chop them more finely and evenly.

  2. Prep the Garlic:

    • Mince the garlic cloves finely. You can also use a garlic press.

  3. Mix the Ingredients:

    • In a medium bowl, combine the chopped herbs and minced garlic.
    • Add the red wine vinegar and lemon juice, if using.
    • Stir in the olive oil until well combined.

  4. Season:

    • Add the red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning as necessary.

  5. Rest:

    • Let the chimichurri sit at room temperature for at least 15-30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

  6. Serve:

    • Serve the chimichurri with grilled meats, vegetables, or as a marinade.

Tips:

  • Adjust Consistency: If you prefer a thinner chimichurri, add more olive oil or a splash of water.
  • Storage: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Stir before serving as the oil may separate.

Enjoy your homemade chimichurri!
