You can serve the chimichurri with any protein of choice, I LOVE shrimp so I went for this one! 1 pound of shrimp is good for the following recipe.
For the Chimichurri:
• ½ cup Olive Oil
• 2 tablespoons Red Wine Vinegar
• 1 tablespoons Lime Juice
• ¼ cup Cilantro leaves finely chopped
• ¼ cup Parsley leaves finely chopped
• 4 cloves Garlic finely chopped
• 1 Red Fresno Chili finely chopped
• ¾ teaspoon dried Oregano
• 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
• ½ teaspoon Black Pepper
• ¼ teaspoon Red Chili Flakes for garnish
Directions:
1. Finely chop cilantro, parsley, garlic, & red chili; place in a medium size bowl.
2. Zest and squeeze the juice of the lime into the bowl.
3. Add the vinegar, oregano, salt and pepper.
4. Whisk in the olive oil. If you want a thinner consistency, you can add more oil to desired constituency and flavor.
Simply do a quick high heat sear on the shrimp, remove from heat. Toss with Chimichurri and I like to garnish with crushed chili flakes. Try serving them as tacos, super fun!!
