Green chimichurri comes together from fresh herbs, garlic, olive oil, and vinegar as a bright Argentine cold sauce for grilled meat and vegetables. You finely chop parsley and cilantro and mix them with garlic, oregano, and chili. You pour in olive oil, red wine vinegar, and optionally lemon and pulse briefly so the sauce stays chunky. You season with salt and adjust the acidity. Let it rest for 1-2 hours and serve with steak or bread.

Step by step process

Preparation

1
Make the green chimichurri: rinse the parsley and cilantro (if using), let drain, and finely chop. Remove coarse stems. Add dried oregano.
2
Add finely chopped garlic and, to taste, chopped chili pepper.
3
Pour in olive oil, red wine vinegar, and, if desired, lemon juice. Mix well or briefly pulse in a blender (2-3 short pulses) so the sauce remains chunky and retains the texture of chopped herbs.
4
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust acidity by adding more vinegar or lemon if needed.

Serving

5
Serve the sauce immediately with grilled meats, vegetables, or fresh bread.
6
Let the sauce rest in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
