Chimichurri sauce is so versatile, and today we have cilantro and parsley chimichurri sauce to try out.
Pairs wonderfully with meat or even as a marinade for seafood and chicken.
I served mine on lettuce cups which I filled with sauce and then a slice of steak.
I also marinaded some prawns in the sauce and then grilled them. Both ways are delicious.
