Chimichurri Sauce: The sauce that makes Everything taste amazing!

Chimichurri Sauce: The sauce that makes Everything taste amazing!

This Chimichurri is a herbaceous, spicy, sour, garlicky fresh sauce you will want to put on EVERYTHING!

I know this is a baking blog, but we all know that life is a balance. The main reasons I can enjoy baked goods and sweets so often is I have a 90% healthy diet, and sweets are my exception not my rule.

That being said, here is one of my favorite sauces, with a combination of sour, salty, spicy, herbaceous, and good dose of garlic that makes almost any grilled or roasted meat or veggie taste amazing! I was inspired to make my first Chimichurri sauce by my one of my closest friends who is married to a man from Costa Rica. She had obtained many a tasty recipe from the Costa Rican culture. (Although the sauce is originally from Argentina) She made the “Costa Rican” version of the sauce for me, and I loved it!

The beauty of Chimichurri sauce is that you do not have to go shopping. I like to use two kinds of herbs like mint and parsley. I usually find large inexpensive bundles of fresh herbs at my local grocery or 99cent store in the vegetable department. It is very much like a Latin pesto, without any nuts. Which makes this recipe gluten free, keto friendly, and frankly very healthy. So, here you go it whips up in abut 5 minutes and adds a punch of flavor to any weekly meal

Chimichurri Sauce

Chimichurri has fresh mint, parsley, garlic, vinegar, and a touch of heat. It's bold flavor is addicting and is healthy and delicious on any grilled foods.
