Ingredients:

• For the chimichurri sauce:
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 cup flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup cilantro, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• For the burgers:
  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 1/4 cup chimichurri sauce
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 burger buns, toasted
  • Your favorite burger toppings

Instructions:

4. Heat a large skillet or grill over medium heat. Cook the burgers for 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
5. Top the burgers with your favorite toppings and serve on toasted buns.

Tips:

• For a more authentic Argentinian flavor, use a combination of ground beef and ground lamb for the burgers.
• If you don't have a food processor or blender, you can chop the herbs and garlic by hand. Just be sure to chop them very finely so that they blend well into the sauce.
• You can also add other ingredients to the chimichurri sauce, such as red onion, green bell pepper, or oregano.
• Serve the burgers with your favorite sides, such as french fries, sweet potato fries, or a salad.

Enjoy!
