Instructions

Step 1

Combine the garlic, parsley, cilantro, red wine vinegar, lime juice, chili flakes, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a food processor or blender.

Preheat the grill to 300°F and brush the fish with neutral oil.

Step 5

Grill on both sides while covering the lid to ensure the fish cooks through.

Pro Tips

#1

Do not puree the chimichurri; it should have a slightly chunky texture.

#2

A mortar and pestle can be used as an alternative to a blender for a more traditional texture.

#3

Scoring the fish helps it cook evenly and allows the marinade to penetrate the flesh.

#4

Using a temperature probe is the best way to ensure the fish is perfectly cooked to 145°F.
