This easy recipe is my version of Argentinian chimichurri, a tangy sauce made with fresh herbs, garlic, olive oil, and vinegar. Drizzle it over roasted veggies, use it as a salad dressing, or toss it with any cooked grain for a vibrant pop of flavor.

Ingredients

  • ⅓ cupextra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoonswhite wine vinegar
  • 1garlic clove (minced)
  • ½ teaspoonsea salt
  • ¼ teaspoondried oregano
  • ¼ teaspoonred pepper flakes
  • ¼ teaspoonsmoked paprika
  • ½ cupfinely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley ((from about 1 bunch of parsley, coarse stems removed))

Directions

  1. 1

    In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, garlic, salt, oregano, red pepper flakes, and smoked paprika. Stir in the parsley. Alternatively, you could combine the ingredients in a mortar and pestle or with a few pulses in a food processor.

  2. 2

    Season to taste and serve as a sauce over roasted or grilled vegetables.
