chimchurri sauce

[mistrykanesage]

anyone have an outstanding recipe for Chimchurri they d like to share?

Use a jar with a plastic lid (qt or so size Mayo is ideal), metal will rust. Adjust ingredients to taste. The recipe was showed to me by an Argentinian so I don't have measured qty's it done by eye.

Add to jar:
2" oregano
1 -2" crushed red pepper
3 cloves garlic
1 Tbl spoon salt
fill jar with equal parts warm water and red wine vinegar, refrigerate until pepper and oregano start to sink. As you use the liquid add equal parts until the "seeds" go dead.

That's mine, I'm interested in others.

1tsp pepper
1TBSP cumin
2cloves garlic

Lime juice to taste and a chopped jalapeño if you want some heat.

Put everything in the food processor and pulse until mixed well but it should be a bit chunky still.

Goes great with a elk steak grilled to medium rare with some salt pepper garlic onion garlic and cumin on it.

@Elkeater -For someone who has never made Chimchurri, Can you give a good start point on the Lime juice? This sounds really good, I'd like to make some up and try it!
Also, for anyone cooking with it....Do you marinade, baste, or put on after cooking?
Thanks for sharing, It's always sweet to find new taste bud tinglers!

@Ckgworks I usually start about 1 tsp if the wife is eating it because she likes light lime but if it's just me I'll use at least a TBSP.
