Notes:

Red chimichurri is best paired with this juicy cowboy steak with pan-fried radish and bacon.
If making cowboy steak with pan-fried radish and bacon, reserve the radish greens from that recipe to make this chimichurri.
This recipe uses Diamond Crystal kosher salt. If using Morton’s adjust to ½ teaspoon. Different kosher salt brands have varied crystal sizes and may affect the salinity of the recipe, so adjust accordingly.
