Chimichurri Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need:

Olive oil

Herbs: I’m using parsley and cilantro.

Red chilies: 1-2, depending on how *hot* you like it.

Shallot: You can also sub an onion, but I like to keep it a bit milder in this.

Garlic: Everything’s better with garlic.

Spices: We’ll be using kosher salt, pepper, and oregano.

Red wine vinegar: To balance it out.
