Delicate tasting chicken becomes super flavorful by being marinated in a bright and herbacious sauce. Classic chimichurri sauces are dominated by parsley and this one is no different. A healthy blend of lemon and additional herbs give the sauce nuance and make it perfect to drizzle over everything. Use it on any meat you plan to grill, such as pork or beef too.
