Gordon Ramsay’s chimichurri recipe is simple but adds a blast of flavor to your steak. This versatile Argentinian sauce can be used when cooking your steak or chicken. You can also serve it in a bowl along with your grilled meats. It adds a beautiful green element to your meal. 

The chimichurri is an Argentinian sauce mainly made with parsley, oregano, garlic, and red vinegar; not to be confused with chimichanga, which is a Spanish fried burrito. Gordon Ramsay serves the chimichurri with fried steak and white bean chorizo. He amps the game by making a delish sauce but not with all the above-mentioned ingredients. His version instead has garlic, sugar, cilantro, parsley, salt, mint, dill, lemon juice, zest, and olive oil. 

Gordon showcased this recipe on his famous, if not controversial, show; Hell’s Kitchen. You can also learn the skirt steak recipe and the white bean chorizo recipe from that episode.

How Will The Recipe Look And Taste?

If you didn’t get my million green color references in the article, let me say it again, the chimichurri looks vibrantly green. The sauce might look a bit chunky if you blend it in a mortar and pestle. If you want a smoother consistency, you should use a blender. The sauce tastes a bit tangy and savory. Also, it feels a little grass-like and the mint adds a coolness. The strong flavor of the garlic goes great with grilled meats.
