I love the simple but spicy Argentinan Chimichurri sauces. I always thought they were the same using green parsely and more. However through the last year, I have come to know that there are different kinds, all good, but difffrerent.
I already found three recipes (see below) including one listed from Chili Pepper Magazine. I like this magazine and have been reading it for years. Actually I started reading them at the stores and copying a few recipes I liked. I then thought I need to get this magazine and try more of the great recipes I had not tried an issue yet . Looking in this issue, I found a very different Chimichurri using red peppers and some of the ingredients in this recipes. I would try this fusion recipe.
Mixed Pepper merican Aregntina with Asia. What I created was an Asian style Red Pepper (3/2009 Chili Pepper, p. 34). The recipe has roasted red pepper, hot peppers ( I used some hot pepper sauce), red wine vinegar, parsley, shallots (I used red onion a substitute that I usually use as it is handy), tomatos, lemon juice , smoked paprika, and oil ( if you need the exact recipe, let me know and I will post it (I don’t have time now to write it out.,
I throught to mix South American Aregntina with Asia and beef. What I created was an Asian style Red Pepper Chimichurri Beef with noodles. I added a little garlic salt to round things outl.
It came out okay. But I guess I am used to the all green style Chimichurri sauces. The red pepper threw off the taste a bit. I prefer to go GREEN. I rated it 8.0/10.
If you feel that way try some of these below.
