Chimichurri is an uncooked sauce which originated in Argentina. It can be used in cooking, for marination or as a table condiment for grilled meats. It is available in a green and red version and contains fresh herbs, such as parsley, cilantro, oregano, minced garlic with a hint of chili. Olive oil binds the sauce together and red wine adds a deapth of flavor. Since I cannot consume alcohol due to religious restrictions, I have substituted Balsamic vinegar reduction to achieve the same result. Because I have never consumed or will ever consume alcohol I will never truly know if my chimichurri sauce is like the orignal sauce but it hits the spot and that’s all that matters!
