Quebracho's Traditional Argentinian Chimichurri

Empanadas are to chimichurri as peanut butter is to jelly, and Quebracho’s traditional Argentinian chimichurri does not disappoint. 

Belén Rodríguez’s OG recipe is bright, tangy, and has a kick of heat on the backend. It’s perfect for serving with empanadas and freezing for future pocket parties (just thaw at room temp to preserve flavor). It is also a multi-dimensional marinade and condiment for meats and veggies of all kinds. When you’re whipping it up, don’t skimp on the olive oil, and don’t throw out the parsley stems—they’re flavor-packed!
