Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Argentina is a foodie’s paradise and this chimichurri recipe will bring the flavors of Argentina to your home.

Argentina knows grilled meats. What better sidekick could there be than a fresh, herby, slightly vinegary sauce to enhance it’s flavor?

This post is all about a great and easy chimichurri recipe for home chefs to enjoy!

This delicious sauce is great on meat, eggs, empanadas, bread, grilled vegetables, fish and so much more. This chimichurri recipe is extremely forgiving and can be adapted to suit your specific taste.

  • Add minced Fresno chili
  • Use fresh oregano rather than dried
  • Add freshly chopped cilantro
  • Add some minced shallots
  • Change the ratio of vinegar to oil

Argentinian food is delicious because of their use of great ingredients, cooking techniques and doing the simple things really well. Buenos Aires, the capital city of Argentina, is a foodie’s heaven. Whether it’s their full-bodied Malbec, sweet and creamy dulce de leche, sumptuous grilled meats or of course their herby and bright chimichurri, a bad meal is hard to come by.
