Chimichurri Sauce and Marinade

This Chimichurri Sauce and Marinade could possibly be the best thing since butter. What’s so awesome about this Chimichurri Sauce is that it’s a two-for-one kind of thing. You can use it as a sauce for grilled meat, drizzled over cooked chicken or fish, mixed in with scrambled eggs, etc. OR you can use it as a marinade.
