This quick and easy 9 ingredient Chimichurri Verde is my spin on the classic South American sauce! It contains a blend of parsley, cilantro, garlic, oil, vinegar and spices; and is BIG on flavor. You'll find yourself putting this delicious gluten-free & vegan sauce on everything -- this I can attest!
The BEST Chimichurri Verde Sauce that uses only 9 ingredients and takes only a few minutes to make . . .
This vibrant green cilantro chimichurri sauce is one of my absolute favorite things in the world!
While I know chimichurri is traditionally served on meat, you will have no problem whatsoever putting it on just about anything savory! It is fresh, zippy, and tangy with a touch of salty sweetness and green vibrancy that brings the dullest dishes to life, and only serves to enhance already flavorful dishes alike.
To give you some ideas, I love to put it on:
- salads
- potatoes (hash browns and mashed especially!)
- roasted veggies
- burritos
- quesadillas
- scrambled eggs
- tofu
- mixed into hummus
- over some freshly made gluten-free pasta
The possibilities are endless!
