Description

A fresh and vibrant green sauce perfect for drizzling over grilled meats, tossing with vegetables, or as a flavorful marinade.


Ingredients

Herbs and Aromatics

  • 1 cup Fresh Italian flat-leaf parsley (Finely chopped)
  • 1/2 cup Fresh Cilantro (Finely chopped)
  • 3 cloves Garlic (Chopped or microplaned)
  • 1 small Red onion or shallots (Finely chopped)
  • 1 tbsp Fresh Oregano (Finely chopped)

Liquid Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp Fresh Lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup Red wine vinegar
  • 1/2 cup Extra-Virgin Olive oil (Adjust for desired consistency)

Seasonings

  • 1 tsp Kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp Red pepper flakes (Optional for heat)


Instructions

Preparation

  1. Finely chop the cilantro, garlic, parsley, oregano, and red onion (or shallots).
  2. In a bowl, combine the chopped ingredients with lemon juice, salt, red pepper flakes, olive oil, and red wine vinegar.
  3. Stir well to combine.
  4. Let the sauce sit for at least 15 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
  5. Serve with grilled meats, vegetables, or use as a marinade.

Notes

Store any leftovers in a sealed jar in the fridge for up to a week. Olive oil may solidify in the cold, so let it sit at room temperature for five minutes and stir before using. You can freeze small portions in ice cube trays for longer storage.
