1
Prepare the Ingredients
Start by washing the fresh cilantro and parsley thoroughly under cold running water to remove any dirt or impurities. Shake off the excess water.
2
Chop the Herbs
Roughly chop the fresh cilantro and parsley. This will help them blend more easily.
3
Prepare the Jalapeño
Remove the stem from the jalapeño pepper, slice it in half, and remove the seeds if you prefer less heat. Chop it into smaller pieces for easier blending.
4
Combine Ingredients in Blender
In a blender or food processor, combine the chopped cilantro, parsley, chopped jalapeño, garlic cloves (peeled), lime juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
5
Blend the Sauce
Blend the mixture on high until smooth. If the sauce is too thick, you can add a little water or additional olive oil to reach your desired consistency.
6
Taste and Adjust
Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning by adding more salt, pepper, or lime juice according to your preferences.
7
Serve or Store
Transfer the green sauce to a serving bowl or an airtight container. It can be served immediately or stored in the refrigerator for up to a week.
