Guillermo’s Chimichurri Sauce Recipe:
Disclaimer: This recipe is a spin on the traditional Argentine version.

Ingredients: (ratios are suggested, play around with your ingredients based on your taste)
Medium bouquet of parsley (makes about ½ cup of chopped parsley)
Medium bouquet of cilantro (makes about ½ cup of chopped cilantro)
3 tbsp roughly chopped onion (use scallion, white or red onion)
4-5 garlic cloves roughly chopped
2 tbsp dry oregano
2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp red pepper flakes
½ tbsp dry thyme
3 tbsp red wine vinegar
Juice from half lemon
⅓ cup white vinegar
Salt to taste
1 ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil

Instructions:
Rough chop garlic cloves and onion.
Wash and clean herb bouquets.
Combine all ingredients (except the oil) in a blender or food processor.
Begin pulsing lightly until stems and large leaves are broken, then add your oil slowly as you keep blending.
Once your oil is all mixed in, stop pulsing, you want to leave some texture in the sauce
Pack sauce in a container with a lid and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Use as a marinade on all kinds of meats and/or as a table condiment to go with your favorite dishes.
