Anyone know of a recipe for fresh parsley and garlic sauce? From Cook's Illustrated?

Question

I just had a great Argentinian style Fresh Parsley and Garlic sauce..... chimichurri. It's a recipe from Cook's Illustrated, but I don't have a membership.

Anyone know the recipe?

Answer 1

Here it is.
For best results use flat-leaf parsley.
INGREDIENTS

1 cup packed fresh parsley leaves from one large bunch, washed and dried
5 medium cloves garlic , peeled
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons water
1/4 cup red onion , finely minced
1 teaspoon table salt
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Process parsley and garlic in workbowl of food processor fitted with steel blade, stopping as necessary to scrape down sides of bowl with rubber spatula, until garlic and parsley are chopped fine (20 one-second pulses); transfer to medium bowl. Whisk in remaining ingredients until thoroughly blended. Spoon about 2 tablespoons over each steak and serve. (Sauce tastes best when used fresh but can be refrigerated, with plastic wrap pressed directly on surface, up to 3 days.)

Answer 2

Argentine Parsley Garlic Sauce

Chimichurri
Makes 2 cups


Argentina is home of a pesto-like pugilist called chimichurri. The sauce owes its freshness and bright green color to flat leaf parsley and its pungency to tongue-pounding doses of garlic. (Talk about ingenuity: Parsley is nature's mouthwash, so it helps counteract the breath-wilting fumes of the garlic.) Those are the basic ingredients, but there are as many variations as there are Argentinian grill jockeys. Some even enliven their chimichurri with grated carrot or red bell pepper; others kick up the heat with hot pepper flakes or fresh chilies.


1 large bunch of fresh flat leaf parsley,
washed, stemmed, and dried
8 cloves of garlic, peeled
3 tablespoons minced onion
5 tablespoons distilled white vinegar or more to taste
5 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon coarse salt (kosher or sea)
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon hot pepper flakes to taste
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup extra virgin olive oil


Finely chop the parsley and garlic in a food processor. Add the onion, vinegar, water, salt, oregano, pepper flakes, and black pepper and process in brief bursts until the salt crystals are dissolved. Add the oil in a thin stream. Do not over process; the chimichurri should be fairly coarse. Correct the seasoning, adding salt or vinegar to taste.

if this isnt right look threw the others there might be something closer or you might be able to tweek it untill you get it right..
