Chimichurri



This is a sauce used for grilled meat. It’s originally from Argentina but it’s used throughout South and Central America. I love using this sauce with churrasco.  Tomorrow is my Birthday celebration at my parent's house and I'm gonna use this to make some amazing chicken skewers. Hope you guys enjoy this as much as we do.

Ingredients:
½ cup of olive oil
1/3 cup white vinegar

1 small or medium onion, peeled and finely chopped
2 Tablespoons of cilantro, finely chopped
4 cloves (crushed) of fresh garlic
½ to 1 Tablespoon of oregano
Salt to taste
1/3 teaspoon of ground black pepper


Procedure:

Mix the olive oil and wine vinegar in an osterizer, remember that they won’t really mix together. 


Start adding all the other ingredients until they've mixed together. Add the onion.


The cilantro.


The garlic.




 And finally the oregano, ground black pepper and the salt to taste.



Mix it all!
Funnel the mixture into a bottle with a cover. Let stand for at least two hours. You may refrigerate for as long as three days. Always remember to mix the bottle before each use.
Use it on steaks, roasts or simply as a marinate. Enjoy!

 Special Thanks to my Dad, who took the pictures! :)
