Chimichurri Sauce

A chimichurri is a Mexican and Central American green sauce. It almost tastes like a pesto but with more kick. I love this sauce because it can be made the day before and it goes great on just about everything. It's best with red meat like steak or fajitas but you can also eat it on veggies, chicken, and fish.

Ingredients:

1 small garlic clove, chopped
2 tablespoon red-wine vinegar
1/2 cup fresh parsley
1/8 cup other green herbs like basil, mint,and/or green onions.
3 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon water
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions:

1. Combine the garlic, vinegar, herbs, olive oil and water in small food processor.

2. Pulse until herbs are coarsely chopped. Season with salt and pepper.
