Chimichurri Rojo is the red version of this savory sauce with plenty of parsley. It's very popular as a BBQ condiment in Uruguay and Argentina, the neighbors of the Rio de la Plata. Everyone mixes its own version. So, feel free to use more or fewer tomatoes, garlic, and chili flakes. Make this recipe for marinated fish or chicken, or serve the sauce with any grilled meat or vegetables.

My daughter gave me a subscription as a Christmas present while our families were quarantining together. It was so much fun! It introduced us to several cuisines that were totally new to us. The recipes were easy to follow and the spices were transformative - fresh and pungent and delicious.
