Prep Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 15 minutes
Servings: 8

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 3/4 cup finely chopped flat leaf parsley
  • 1/3 cup finely chopped cilantro
  • 5 garlic cloves finely minced
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 small red onion finely chopped

Instructions

  • In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil and red wine vinegar.
  • Stir in the chopped parsley, cilantro, minced garlic, seasonings, and red pepper flakes.
  • Stir in the red onion.
  • Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • To get the best texture, be sure to chop everything finely and evenly. No one wants to bite into a large piece of onion, so try to chop everything as finely as possible.
  • Give the sauce time to settle. Let the flavors meld in the fridge for at least 30 minutes or up to a few hours before serving.
  • Storage. This chimichurri can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days.
