This is a summer staple at our house. We make it for steak, but I also use it for basic chicken breasts and salmon. For our taste we use equal amount parsley and cilantro.

It is an interesting take, but definitely some unorthodox additions with the cumin and the cilantro.. I like to get mine from www.morechimichurri.com

I've made this many times and love it, albeit with a lot less heat--1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper is more my speed. Perhaps it isn't a classic chimichurri, but it always serves my purpose perfectly. Come summer, I often make basic salt and pepper ribs on the grill and serve them with three sauces: this "chimichurri," my homemade BBQ sauce, and a Vietnamese dipping sauce. Folks have their choice and often try all of the sauces. I've also used this sauce with grilled lamb chops--yum!

I made this sauce as a marinade for a grilled butterflied leg of lamb. I added fresh mint to the leafy ingredients. It was very good. (I saved some of the sauce to be served as a condiment at the table.) Really Good

This recipe highlights the very essentials of what a great adornment is. Now with that said, most will agree to how a good Chimichurri sauce is an acquired taste & not a door mat for most critics. Some of the reviews on this topic seem to come from the lack of a palate or knowledge of cooking ability.

This may not be chimichurri (what do I know, I'm a white girl from Canada, tell me it's chimichurri, it's chimichurri) but it sure is delicious. (Even Canadian white gurls kniw delicious.)
