Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of bread works best for grilling?
Sturdy, crusty breads like sourdough, ciabatta, or a rustic country loaf hold up best to the heat and soak in the chimichurri beautifully.
Can I make chimichurri ahead of time?
Yes, it actually improves as it sits—make it a few hours ahead to let the flavors meld, or refrigerate for up to a couple of days.
How do I keep the bread from burning on the grill?
Brush the bread lightly with oil and grill over medium heat, watching closely and flipping once it’s golden with light char marks.
Can I use this chimichurri on other dishes?
Absolutely—it’s delicious on grilled meats, vegetables, or even spooned over eggs for a fresh, herbaceous kick.
Is there a way to make this without a grill?
Yes, you can use a grill pan or toast the bread in a hot skillet or oven to achieve a similar crisp, golden finish.
