Cilantro Chimichurri in a white bowl.

Chimichurri Sauce with Cilantro Recipe

QR Code
Not a traditional Argentinian chimichurri... It's just as fresh and bright, but includes fresh cilantro, sherry vinegar, and generous amounts of garlic and crushed red pepper. It comes together in a flash, and pairs well with many dishes, but is glorious on beef!
