Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh parsley leaves
  • 1/4 cup fresh oregano leaves
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Chop the Fresh Ingredients:
    • In a food processor, combine the fresh parsley, oregano, red bell pepper, and garlic. Pulse until finely chopped.
  • Add the Seasonings:
    • Add red wine vinegar, smoked paprika, ground cumin, and crushed red pepper flakes. Pulse again to combine.
  • Incorporate the Olive Oil:
    • With the food processor running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil until the mixture is well blended and slightly chunky.
  • Season to Taste:
    • Add salt and pepper, adjusting seasoning to your liking.
  • Let it Rest:
    • Transfer to a bowl and let it sit for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. The longer it sits, the more flavorful it becomes.

Notes

  • If you prefer a spicier version, add more crushed red pepper flakes or a chopped jalapeño.
  • For a milder sauce, reduce the crushed red pepper flakes or omit them.
  • Can be made ahead and stored for up to a week in the fridge.
