Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix parsley, cilantro, minced garlic, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, olive oil, red pepper flakes, oregano, salt, and pepper to make the chimichurri marinade.
  2. Place chicken in a resealable bag or shallow dish and pour half of the chimichurri over it. Seal or cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side until cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
  4. While grilling, combine sour cream with minced garlic and a splash of lemon juice in a small bowl.
  5. After grilling, let chicken rest before slicing it into strips. Serve over rice or quinoa with fresh veggies and drizzle with remaining chimichurri and creamy sauce.
