Equipment

  • food processor or blender Optional

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Olive Oil
  • ½ cup Red Wine Vinegar
  • 1 Shallot Finely Chopped
  • 1 Jalapeno Finely Chopped
  • 8-10 Cloves of Garlic Finely Chopped (use less if you aren't a garlic lover like me!)
  • ½ cup Fresh Cilantro Finely Chopped
  • ½ cup Fresh Parsley Finely Chopped
  • 1 Tbsp Fresh Oregano Finely Chopped
  • 1 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • Salt to taste

Instructions
 

  • If using a food processor, blend Cilantro, Parsley & Oregano until finely chopped. Set aside and clean out food processor.
  • Next add jalapeno, garlic & Shallot to food processor blend until finely chopped. Move mixture to a bowl and add ½ cup of red wine vinegar. Let sit for 30-60 minutes to allow the flavors to marinate.
  • After 30-60 minutes add the bowl of Cilantro, Parsley & Oregano to wet mixture. Slowly whisk in Olive Oil. Serve over your desired meat.

Notes

Storage: Store in an air tight container in fridge. Remove from fridge 15 minutes before use to allow olive oil to thaw.
