Cilantro Chimichurri Sauce Recipe

This vibrant and zesty cilantro version of the classic chimichurri sauce is a perfect topping for grilled meats, vegetables, or as a marinade. The fresh flavors of cilantro, garlic, and lime make it a refreshing accompaniment to any dish.


Ingredients:

  • 1 bunch fresh cilantro, stems removed
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon honey (optional, for sweetness)
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste for heat)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Ingredients:

    • Roughly chop the cilantro and garlic.
  2. Blend the Sauce:

    • In a food processor or blender, combine the cilantro, lime juice, red wine vinegar, garlic, honey (if using), red pepper flakes, and cumin (if using).
    • Pulse a few times until the ingredients are finely chopped and combined.
  3. Add Olive Oil:

    • With the processor or blender running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil until the sauce reaches your desired consistency. It should be thick but pourable.
  4. Season and Taste:

    • Taste the chimichurri sauce and season with salt and pepper to your liking. If you prefer a sweeter flavor, you can add a little more honey.
  5. Serve and Store:

    • Serve immediately with your favorite grilled meats, vegetables, or as a marinade for chicken or steak.
    • If not using right away, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The flavors will meld and improve over time.

This cilantro chimichurri is a bright, fresh twist on the traditional recipe, with the lime and cilantro bringing an extra layer of flavor that pairs wonderfully with grilled or roasted dishes!
