Cilantro Chimichurri Recipe

Kelly Jensen
This cilantro chimichurri recipe is a quick herby sauce to make in a blender! With fresh parsley, cilantro, garlic, oregano, olive oil & vinegar, this sauce packs serious flavor into anything that needs it! Chimichurri is a classic Argentinian sauce that goes great on anything grilled: meats, vegetables, or potatoes. This sauce has a deliciously bold flavor, and is such a great addition to your next grilling night or BBQ.
