It’s time to make Chimichurri Sauce part of your cooking arsenal. It’s loaded with fresh herbs, sharp vinegar, spicy chilis, and garlic. It goes on practically everything. Steaks, salads, chicken, pizza, pasta, burgers, fish, sandwiches, and probably even ice cream!
You don’t necessarily have to chop it up all by hand with a sharp chef’s knife. You could use a blender or food processor. Personally, I like to keep things simple and hate doing dishes.

Chimichurri Sauce
While you could simply buzz all the ingredients of this chimichurri sauce in a food processor or blender, I prefer to chop them all by hand. It doesn't take long, gives you more control, and doesn't require cleaning anything more than a knife and cutting board.
