Servings: 4 people
Ingredients
- 1 cup flat-leaf parsley (tightly packed, about 1 bunch, thick stems removed)
- 1 cup cilantro (tightly packed, about 1 bunch, thick stems removed)
- 1 shallot (roughly chopped)
- 2 tablespoon fresh oregano
- 3 garlic cloves
- ¼ cup red wine vinegar
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon Branch and Vine Black Garlic Sea Salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ cup Branch and Vine Rosemary Olive Oil
Instructions
- Start by gathering all your ingredients. Wash the parsley and cilantro thoroughly to remove any dirt or grit. Remove the thick stems and roughly chop the herbs.
- Place the parsley, cilantro, shallot, oregano, garlic cloves, red wine vinegar, red pepper flakes, Black Garlic Sea Salt, and black pepper in a food processor or blender.
- Pulse the mixture a few times until everything is roughly chopped. You’re looking for a coarse texture, not a paste. Scrape down the sides as needed to make sure everything is evenly incorporated.
- With the processor running on a low setting, slowly drizzle in the Branch and Vine Rosemary Olive Oil. Blend just until the oil is combined, and the mixture has a slightly chunky texture.
- Give it a quick taste test. If you like it spicier, add a pinch more red pepper flakes. If you prefer more tang, a splash of vinegar will do the trick.
- Transfer the Chimichurri Sauce to a bowl and serve immediately. If you’re not using it right away, pour it into a sealed container and refrigerate.
