Pickle Brine Chimichurri
Steak and chimichurri go together like peanut butter and jelly. Chimichurri is Argentina's crown jewel condiment. The colorful sauce is full of fresh herbs, bright acidity, and a bit of spice. Similar to pesto, chimichurri is one of those dishes that you simply cannot mess up. In fact, almost every recipe for chimichurri varies from one to the other. Pickle Brine Chimichurri features The Real Dill Caraway Garlic Dills pickle brine, which is used in place of vinegar, the traditional form of acid in South American recipes. In addition to being an incredible dipping sauce for steak and veggies, chimichurri also doubles as an excellent marinade for meats and fish.
