Spiceology Chimichurri blend is one of the best kitchen shortcuts to keep on hand at all times. 

 Instead of all that chopping - simply add extra virgin olive oil to our Chimichurri blend; you instantly have an ultra-flavorful sauce or marinade ready for dinner. 

 Chef Ryan Wiebe shares his easy dinner recipe for pan-seared scallops with an herby chimi sauce below - enjoy!
