Chimichurri Sauce
Chimichurri Sauce
INGREDIENTS
Olive oil or vegetable oil ¾ cup
Garlic cloves, peeled, whole 3 to 4 cloves
Boiling water ½ cup
Shallots, Peeled and finely chopped 2 tbsp
Red wine vinegar 1/3 cup
Lemon juice, freshly squeezed ¼ cup
Fresh parsley, roughly chopped ½ bunch
Fresh cilantro, roughly chopped ½ bunch
Sea salt as needed
Black pepper, freshly ground as needed
LET'S GET COOKING!
Place the oil and peeled whole garlic cloves in a small pot. Place on a burner and warm the oil on medium heat for about 7-10 minutes, until the garlic begins to sizzle. Turn off the heat and remove from the burner to cool.
Combine the boiling water and the Wild Fork Chimichurri Spice Blend into a medium sized mixing bowl and stir to re-hydrate the herbs, about 3-5 minutes.
Remove the cooled garlic cloves from the oil and mash to a paste.
Combine the garlic paste, shallots, red wine vinegar, and freshly squeezed lemon juice with the re-hydrated chimichurri mixture.
Whisk in the warmed oil.
Add the fresh parsley and cilantro and stir to combine all the ingredients.
Taste the mixture and add salt and pepper as needed.
Transfer the completed chimichurri sauce to a food safe container, cover, and store in your refrigerator.
