How to Make Chimichurri

  1. Roughly chop 1 cup of fresh parsley.
  2. Combine the chopped parsley, 1/2 cup packed fresh cilantro, 1/4 cup red wine vinegar, 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (or more, to taste), and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a food processor.
  3. Pulse until finely chopped but still slightly textured. Do not over-process.
  4. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more red pepper flakes for extra heat, or more vinegar for extra tang.
  5. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
