GQ Chimichurri

Little can go wrong with a fresh herb sauce. In spring when oregano is thick and lush in the garden, this is the go to fresh sauce for spooning over meats, fowl, roasted vegetables, or for pouring on a plate and dipping in bites of an artisanal loaf of bread. The smell of this sauce is divine. Gauchos, skilled South American horseman, cooking on open fires are credited for this sauce. There are many versions of chimichurri, but this particular recipe is lifted straight from the pages of GQ. Cowboys and urban hipsters love it, and you will too.
