Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Combine the avocados, white onion, cilantro, parsley, jalapeño, lime juice, white balsamic vinegar, and garlic in a blender or food processor. (5 minutes)

02

Step
2 mins

Pulse until coarsely chopped, ensuring the mixture is well combined but still has some texture. (2 minutes)

03

Step
3 mins

With the blender running on low speed, slowly drizzle in the olive oil until the chimichurri reaches a smooth, creamy consistency. (3 minutes)

04

Step
1 mins

Season generously with salt and pepper to taste. (1 minute)

05

Step
15 mins

Transfer to a serving bowl and let rest for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

For a smoother sauce, use a high-speed blender.
Adjust the amount of jalapeño to control the level of spice.
If the chimichurri is too thick, add a tablespoon of water or lime juice at a time to reach the desired consistency.
This sauce is best served fresh, but it can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. The avocado may brown slightly, but the flavor will still be delicious.

    Super easy to make and tastes so fresh. Will definitely make again.

    I found it a little too spicy, so I used half a jalapeño the second time and it was perfect.
