Broccoli Chimichurri

Chimichurri, or as we call it, California gravy, gets a healthy upgrade with the addition of broccolini. Pair with EVOO and you have a heart healthy match made in heaven. Cover steaks in this magic sauce, dunk bread, drizzle it over yogurt for an umami twist. The possibilities are endless.

Ingredients:

1 medium bunch broccolini

1 cup Chefs Life Extra Virgin Olive Oil

¼  cup red wine vinegar

1/3 cup chopped parsley

1 tbsp dill

5 cloves garlic

½ tsp. crushed red chili flakes

1 bunch scallions charred and chopped

Zest of 1 lemon

Juice of ½ lemon

Salt and pepper to taste

Method:

Roast the head of broccolini in a skillet on medium high heat until completely charred on the outside, about 4-5 minutes. Add in the garlic and scallions. Char both, another few minutes, let cool and chop.

Chop the herbs and zest the lemon on a micro plane, mix them all together. Add in all remaining ingredients together and season the salt and pepper.
