Dazzling Blue Kale Chimichurri

Florida’s Gulf Coast is home to a handful of the most jaw-dropping white sand beaches in all the world. It’s also a great place for seasonal sport fishing, oyster bar hopping, and outdoor cooking. Although Chimichurri is Argentinian by origin, it took a few pit-stops throughout the Caribbean on its way to the US, and as a result, became more and more malleable. Its classic application is to accompany charcoal-grilled steaks, but don’t stop there! Schmear it on a whole Queen Snapper fresh off the boat, slather it on your next fried chicken sandwich, and splash it on your ice-cold freshly shucked Gulf Coast oysters. The possibilities are infinitely delicious, but we do tend to enjoy it most with toes in the sand and fresh, local seafood.
