Easy Chimichurri Sauce

A quick and easy sauce to pair with your favorite cut of meat.

Chimichurri is my favorite sauce to pair with steak but it also goes great on top of tacos and all kinds of other meat. The best part of this sauce is that you can throw everything together ridiculously quickly and it tastes like it took you hours to make it.

Simple but FRESH ingredients is what makes this recipe pop. make it in a big batch and put it on the table for every meal.

We paired it with our reverse seared steak and it was a crowd pleaser!
