Chimichurri.
This delicious, fresh chimichurri is a perfect pairing with steak, chicken, lamb or even halloumi!! If you can, make this the night before and keep in the fridge overnight.
You will need (Serves 5-6)
125ml extra virgin olive oil
2tbsp red wine vinegar
1 large garlic clove, grated
3/4 tsp of dried oregano
1 tsp salt
1 finely diced red chilli
1/2 tsp black pepper
Method:
Mix all your ingredients and allow to sit for a couple of hours before serving. I actually found that it was best left overnight when I finished the leftovers because all the flavours had beautifully infused into the extra virgin olive oil.
Tip!
If you don’t want to risk too much heat with a red chilli, or if your red chilli doesn’t give you much of a kick (sometimes they can be as sweet as bell peppers1) then use Kashmiri chilli flakes to taste to provide a mild kick.
