Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh parsley leaves
- 0.5 cup fresh basil leaves
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro leaves
- 0.25 cup fresh chives
- 2 tablespoons fresh oregano leaves
- 2 large garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 0.5 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
Begin by washing all the fresh herbs thoroughly under cold water. Pat them dry with paper towels or use a salad spinner to remove excess moisture.
Peel the garlic cloves and set them aside.
In a food processor, combine the parsley, basil, cilantro, chives, and oregano. Pulse the herbs until they are finely chopped.
Add the garlic cloves to the processor and pulse again until the garlic is minced and well integrated with the herbs.
Pour in the lemon juice, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar. Add the sea salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes if using.
Process the mixture in the food processor until the ingredients are well combined and the sauce reaches a smooth consistency. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed to ensure even blending.
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if necessary. Add a pinch more salt or a squeeze of lemon juice to brighten the flavors if desired.
Transfer the sauce to a clean jar or airtight container. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Serve as a delicious accompaniment to grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or as a zesty dressing for salads.
