Ajoke
This homemade cilantro parsley chimichurri comes together in 5 minutes. It is vibrant, flavorful and absolutely delicious. It is so versatile and will elevate any dish it is added to, I always have this in my fridge as it is a great way to use leftover parsley or cilantro I have it on hand. It can be used as a marinade, condiment, or even as an ingredient in your favorite dishes.

Ingredients
  

  • 30 g parsley leaves
  • 20 g cilantro leaves
  • 3 large garlic cloves or use as desired
  • ½ Tablespoon dried oregano
  • 1 Tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • cup olive oil
  • Salt and back pepper

Instructions
 

  • Wash the parsley and cilantro leaves, pat them dry, and discard the stems.
  • Using a sharp knife, finely chop the parsley, cilantro and garlic then transfer into a bowl.
  • Add in the dried oregano, chili pepper flakes, red wine vinegar, salt and freshly black pepper to taste.
  • Pour the olive oil into the bowl, and mix all ingredients until well combined. Your cilantro parsley chimichurri is now ready to use.
    However, it is best to leave this sauce in the fridge or on the countertop for at least 30 minutes for the flavors to meld.

Food processor instructions

  • If using a food processor, add the parsley, cilantro leaves, and garlic to the food processor bowl. Pulse it a few times until the herbs look finely chopped as you would with a knife. Make sure not to overprocess it as it is not meant to look mushy.
  • Transfer it to a bowl then add the rest of the ingredients and mix until well combined. Serve and enjoy
