👨‍🍳 Pro Meal Prep Tips for This Dish

  • Hand chopping parsley: chop parsley with a sharp chef knife rather than a food processor to prevent grassy bruising.
  • Acid brightness: red wine vinegar provides sharp tang that cuts through dense starch and protein.
  • Keep sauce unheated: never microwave chimichurri; heat the dish first, then drizzle fresh room-temp sauce.
