Cutting Board Chimichurri
makes about ¾ cup
1 cup chopped parsley
½ – 1 jalapeño, grilled and finely chopped
1 lime, zest and juice
½ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon red chile flakes
1 cinnamon stick, charred on grill (or pinch of ground cinnamon)
⅓ – ½ cup olive oil
Prepare coals or heat gas grill to high temperature. Prepare each vegetable separately by tossing or rubbing in olive oil. Sprinkle with salt.
Cook the vegetables until tender and place on a sheet pan.
Prepare the Chimichurri: directly on the cutting board, combine the chopped parsley and jalapeño. Add the lime zest & juice, salt, and chile flakes. Using a microplane, shave a pinch of cinnamon.
Once combined, chop the mixture finer. Mix in the olive oil. Adjust seasoning, if necessary.
Rub the Chimichurri on each of the grilled vegetables. Arrange vegetables on a platter.
