\"Chimichuri<\/a><\/p>\n

Here’s the thing: \u00a0You probably cook for your family a lot. \u00a0Or maybe you’re cooking a chicken breast for one. \u00a0Doesn’t matter. \u00a0What matters is: \u00a0Sometimes, you overcook the meat. \u00a0I know, it happens to the best of us. \u00a0(Okay, especially me, since I have a fear of giving my kids undercooked meat\u00a0that gives them food poisoning.) \u00a0So what do you do? \u00a0Trash the whole thing? \u00a0NO WAY. \u00a0I’m frugal. \u00a0I scrape the black off toast. \u00a0So when you get dry chicken – or fish or beef or pork or even tofu – you sauce that thing. \u00a0Enter Chimichuri Sauce<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

It sounds spicy, right? \u00a0It’s not. \u00a0It’s a milder, slimmer cousin to pesto. \u00a0Aside from being healthy for you (olive oil, parsley, garlic, and vinegar are all great for your health) – this sauce is mild enough to dress up any protein, and macho enough to save the day.<\/p>\n

This photo is of my Chimichuri Sauce over chicken thighs. \u00a0(Yes, I cook A LOT of chicken thighs.) \u00a0Try it on beef (like the Argentinians do), chicken breasts, or the salmon filet I may or may not have just overcooked in the oven for dinner …<\/p>\n
