Chimichurri

I felt like to have an Argentinean Christmas Eve and you cannot have great meat without the chimichurri sauce. Here is the recipe I tried.


Ingredients:
* 1 cup of mixed oil (half olive and half sunflower, for instance)
* 1 cup of red wine vinegar
* 2 tablespoons of fresh chopped oregano
* 1 tablespoon paprika
* 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
* 1/2  tablespoon of cumin
* 3 garlic cloves finely chopped
* 1 medium ripe tomato, finely chopped
* 2 teaspoons salt
* 1/2 cup of finely chopped fresh parsley
* 1 teaspoon of thyme
* Pinch of black pepper


Mix well all the ingredients together and let it rest in the fridge for a few hours. When the steaks are ready, pour a little bit of the mixture on the meat. 


Preparation: 10 minutes
