I hand chopped the ingredients of my chimichurri sauce for a bit of texture but you can pulse it in the food processor if you prefer a smooth herb sauce. I love using my mini food processor for small sauces like this one. You also can either broil or grill the steak while the flavors of your chimichurri sauce are marrying. Ok, my mouth is watering right now, how about yours?
