Karl’s Kitchen – Zesty Chimichurri Sauce

Here’s a flavorful chimichurri recipe using your ingredients, perfect for about 4 people. It’s great as a marinade or drizzled over grilled meats, veggies, or even as a dipping sauce.

Ingredients (Serves 4):

  • Ingredients:

    • 1 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped (packed)

    • 3 cloves garlic, minced

    • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

    • 1 teaspoon honey

    • 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil

    • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (freshly squeezed)

    • 2 tablespoons diced onion (white or red onion works)

    • 1 red chili, finely chopped (or 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes for milder heat)

    • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

    • 1/2 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)

    • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper (freshly ground)

Instructions:

  1. In a bowl, whisk together the red wine vinegar, lemon juice, honey, salt, pepper, garlic, onion, and red chili.
  2. Stir in the chopped parsley and dried oregano.
  3. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while stirring constantly to combine.
  4. Let the chimichurri sit for at least 15–30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. For best results, let it sit for an hour.
  5. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

Tip: If you prefer a smoother consistency, you can pulse everything in a food processor briefly — just enough to blend, not puree.
