Instructions
Add the parsley, kale, oregano, garlic, lime zest, lime juice, white vinegar, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using) to a blender or food processor.
Pulse or run the machine on low speed until the herbs and garlic are chopped and beginning to combine, stopping once to scrape down the bowl or sides with a spatula.
With the machine running on low, slowly pour the olive oil in a thin, steady stream into the mixture so the sauce emulsifies.
Continue processing until the chimichurri reaches your desired texture (well combined but still slightly textured); stop and scrape the bowl once more if needed.
Serve the chimichurri immediately, or transfer it to a jar or airtight container and store in the refrigerator.
