Equipment
Ingredients
- 3-5 Garlic cloves
- 2 Tablespoon fresno chili pepper, or 1 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1 cup Fresh Parsley
- 2 Tablespoon Oregano
- 1 1/2 Tablespoon Red Wine Vinegar
- 1 Tablespoon Freshly squeezed lime juice
- 1/3 cup Neutral Oil
- 1/4 tsp Fine sea salt, more or less to taste
Instructions
- In the bowl of a mini food processor, add garlic and pepper. Pulse until roughly chopped.
- Then, add parsley, oregano, red wine vinegar, lime juice, and red pepper flakes (if using instead of a whole pepper). Pulse until roughly chopped and combined; you're looking for a uniform mixture but not a pureed one.
- Transfer the herb mixture to a bowl and cover with oil. Let seep for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld before using. Serve over grilled meats, veggies, or as a marinade (or however else you desire!). Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days.
Notes
Makes a scant 3/4 cups of sauce.
