My husband lived in Argentina for two years while serving a mission for our church. And if you know my husband, you probably know how much he loves hamburgers. When my mom found this recipe (from Bobby Flay?), she decided it would be a great thing to make for him. It was my first time having chimmichurri sauce and I loved it and thought it tasted great on a burger. The chimmichurri sauce can be made a ahead of time, just bring it to room temp before serving. If you are looking for a way to jazz up a burger, this is a great way to do it!
