This week, our focus for the recipe of the week isn’t as much of a main meal recipe but is rather a sauce/garnish recipe that in my opinion, can complement almost any protein – especially red meat. Chimichurri is an olive oil-based sauce, with very few, but very strong and complimentary ingredients. As well, growing up with an Argentine parent, it’s one of my favourite sauces/marinades, and something that I always prepare whenever I have steak to drizzle over top. In my opinion, it makes any steak 10x as good.
