Chimichurri

From my research it appears to me that in Argentina they only use salt to season their red meat because they top it with a flavorful sauce called chimichurri.  Like many things chimichurri is highly regionalized.  I have found numerous recipes for it.  The things they all have in common are; an acid which is usually red wine vinegar or lemon juice, oil, and herbs and spices galore.  Tonight between Aurora and myself we came up with a keeper that, hopefully, will bring tears to any native Argentinians eyes.

INGREDIENTS
6 clove garlic
1 shallot
1/2 bunch parsley
2 lemons
1/2 t salt
1 t crushed red pepper
2 T olive oil

DIRECTIONS
1)  zest 1 lemon and juice both

2)  combine lemon zest and juice with all other ingredients in a food processor and chop until minced

3)  refrigerate until served



I hope this brings new life to your grill.
