It’s the start of true grilling season in the midwest, despite the crummy rain we will have over the next few days. But that never stopped a good Chicagoan from firing up that grill!

Sauces are one of my favorite ways to accompany grilled food. Vegetables, seafood, meat really anything is almost always better with a fun sauce! And chimichurri is one of my absolute favorites. Super garlicky and loaded with herbs, this sauce comes together so quickly in just a few minutes.

So make a big batch and serve it alongside your grilled food or even toss with some rice or pasta for a delicious side dish! It will last about a week in the fridge and you’ll definitely want to add it to everything!

Stay safe out there, Drizzlers!
