Roasting

I’m crazy about this take on chimichurri. Using a roasted leek creates a smoky and savory depth behind fresh herbs, and creamy avocado brings everything together. A sauce like this is best served over a simply-prepared steak or chicken, because it adds rich flavor without taking away from the beauty of a good piece of meat. The recipe makes quite a bit of sauce – when I have extra, I like to whisk a spoonful into salad dressings or drizzle some over poached eggs and toast.
