Chimichurri: An Authentic Recipe for this Argentinian Sauce
This recipe can easily be halved, but if you're like us, you'll find uses other than steak for this delicious condiment; we also like it on grilled pork, fish and other seafood. Chimichurri can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week; bring to room temperature before serving.

Cups
Tip
Don't substitute fresh oregano. The stronger flavor and texture of dried oregano is a hallmark of chimichurri.

Easy and delicious
Super easy and delicious! I made this to go with the oven-perfect steaks, and I can see this becoming a staple condiment for other things as well.

My new favorite sauce
This chimichuri is divine. I am a huge chimichuri fan but have never used oregano before and was surprised to see how much of it goes into this sauce, but the moment you taste it you will understand. I could eat this with every meal it is so good. Outstanding recipe!

Not impressed
1st milk street recipe that disappoints. Cannot taste oregano — I LOVE spicy but this spicy overwhelms any other flavors — at least to *everyone* in my family. Would love to see a Chimichurri recipe that’s …. More traditional?! Ty though & if we all had the same preferences it would be a boring world!

This stuff is addictive. I've made it twice with the Argentinian steak and eat the leftovers (it makes a decent amount) on everything from vegetables to fish. I found it a little spicy with the 1/4 cup red pepper so dialed that back a bit second time around.
