Consequently, this recipe is marinated with homemade Chimichurri sauce and imparts fresh parsley and herb flavor combined with the smokiness from the grill. In conclusion, this grilled chicken is going to a new summer favorite at your house. 
BBQ Chimichurri Chicken:
Needless to say, if you have never had Chimichurri sauce you are in for a treat. Chimichurri Sauce is made from fresh parsley, red onions, red chili, balsamic vinegar, and oil. Once I had this sauce in Disneyland years ago, I was addicted. It is so good. Incidentally, I make mine with watercress, parsley, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Therefore, it has a tangy, zippy, fresh flavor. Either way, this sauce is a versatile, vibrant, and tasty sauce. In conclusion, I use my Avocado Oil Chimichurri Sauce for a marinade, topping, and dip.
All in all, I love to make new and unique dishes from all over the globe. In all honesty, this dish is the perfect dish to make at any campout or to bring to a church potluck or picnic.
Cumin, Coriander, and a food processor can all be found off of Amazon.
