Mint Chimichurri

Mint Chimichurri. Here's a sauce that takes advantage of all that mint, a South American chimichurri, with mint taking the place of some of the parsley that is traditional for classic chimichurri. I've made the sauce with straight mint and with a parsley mint blend, and the blend wins. It's just the right balance of flavors. It also goes great on fish, chicken, or even pasta! This mint chimichurri sauce is great on meat roasts, steaks and this mint version is especially wonderful with a grilled rack of lamb.
