Preparation:
Finely chop the shallots, garlic, and dried tomatoes. Finely chop the mixed herbs as well and add them to a bowl along with the chili.

Finally, season with salt to taste and let the chimichurri sit in the refrigerator for a few hours, ideally overnight. This allows the flavors to develop more intensely.

Robert’s Chimichurri stays fresh in the refrigerator for at least two weeks. It’s important to ensure that the herbs are always completely covered by a thin layer of oil. This helps preserve the flavor and quality.
