Notes
I love sauces, especially ones like this that are easy to make and make use of super common ingredients.
Often I’ll make one or two sauces at the beginning of the week and use those to spruce up the various meals I make throughout the week. This sauce is a great prep-ahead condiment because it’s so versatile.
I’ve paired this with steak, carne asada tacos, whole roasted chicken, roasted carrots, roasted sweet potatoes, lamb chops, and a bunch more.
Ingredients
- 1 bunch parsley
- 1 bunch cilantro
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 2 serrano or jalapeño peppers
- zest + juice of 1 lime
- salt
- olive oil
Process
Trim just the tough bottoms off the herbs.
Add the herbs, garlic, peppers, lime, and a big pinch of salt to a blender.
Add in about 1/4 cup of olive oil, and blend. Add more oil as needed as you blend to get a nice consistency like the one in the photo.
Taste and adjust with more salt or lime juice until you’re happy with the taste.
Enjoy!
This is great on its own, but you can also add it to a cup of Greek yogurt or a cup of mayo for a creamier sauce. Or throw an avocado in the blender along with everything else.
