Cilantro Lime Chimichurri

Cilantro Lime Chimichurri

If you haven't ever tried Chimichurri sauce you are seriously missing out! I like to describe it as a pesto made with cilantro and garlic instead of parsley. This simple sauce really jazzes up any type of meat or seafood. I also use it as a marinade for chicken or shrimp tacos. I hope you love this versatile sauce as much as I do!
