Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh parsley finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh oregano chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried)
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
Prepare the Herbs
- Wash parsley and oregano well. Pat them dry fully. Chop them very finely using a sharp knife. Fresh herbs are key for bright flavor. Take your time to get a fine texture for the best result.
Mince the Garlic
- Peel the garlic cloves carefully. Mince them into very small pieces. This helps the flavor spread evenly. Fresh garlic gives strong taste, so do not skip this step.
Mix the Ingredients
- In a bowl, add chopped herbs and garlic. Pour in olive oil and vinegar. Add lemon juice, salt, black pepper and red pepper flakes. Mix everything slowly until well combined.
Taste and Adjust
- Taste the sauce with a spoon. Add more salt or vinegar if needed. Some like it tangy, others mild. Adjust based on your taste preference.
Rest Before Serving
- Let the sauce sit for 10 minutes. This helps flavors blend nicely. Serve fresh or store in the fridge. Stir again before serving for best texture.
Notes
- Use fresh herbs for best taste
- Add cilantro for a different twist
- Use lime juice instead of lemon
- Make it spicy with extra chili flakes
- Blend in a food processor for smoother texture
- Let it rest longer for deeper flavor
