Chimichuri pick me up Recipe

Sometimes you need a little change of pace for your regular stand-bys....like grilled chicken and so on. Chimichuri sauce is from Argentina, bursting with flavor and great as a marinade or sauce over chicken, steak, on crostini, whatever. Super easy to make in a food processor, variations abound. Key ingredient is fresh parsley:

1 cup fresh or just the whole bunch flatleaf parsley
3/4 cup EVOO (extra virgin olive oil)
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar (cider works too)
1 tablespoon lemon juice, hopefully fresh
1 Tablespoon minced garlic (jarred is fine) Darcy and I will use 2 or 3 Tbs
1 or 2 minced shallots (or 1/4 cup red onion minced)
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (for some ooomph)
1/2 tespoon salt, 1/4 t. pepper (more if necessary for your taste)

Optional additions: select only one!
2 tablespoons dried oregano
2 teaspoon cumin
1 tablespoon dried basil
2 teaspoons cilantro

Whiz together and let sit for an hour or so to blend flavor. hmmm, I like parsley, especially in summer.
