Chimichurri sauce – an herb lover’s dreams come true in form of a green sauce. Handful of herbs, few ingredients, extremely flavorful.
What is chimichurri sauce?
Chimichurri originated from Argentina and it comes in form of green or red sauce. The main ingredients for this sauce flavors are parsley, cilantro, and oregano. It might be serving as marinades or as condiments. But for me it’s basically just a goddess green sauce. Drizzles them on meats, toasts, or serve as dressing in salads, basically everything.
A sauce that is so tasty, incredibly easy and goes great with steak, fish, or even chicken. The opportunities are endless, my friends.
