Easy Chimichurri Sauce

Chimichurri is an oil-based seasoning sauce used to go with barbecued meats and churrasco. To add flavour and tenderise the meat, Argentines often marinate meats in Chimichurri.

Fresh oregano, parsley, and cilantro are mixed with a lot of red wine vinegar to make a strong sauce that goes well on grilled steaks and other meats.
