How to Make Argentine Red Sauce And Marinade

  1. Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl and whisk vigorously until thoroughly combined.
  2. For best results, let the marinade rest for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  3. Generously coat your 1 lb of lamb chops, boneless pork chops, steak, or chicken legs with the chimichurri rojo.
  4. Marinate the meat in the refrigerator for 4 to 24 hours. The longer it marinates, the more flavorful it will become!
  5. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated meat for approximately 5 minutes per side, or until cooked to your desired doneness.
  6. Store leftover marinade in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
