Ingredients

2 bunches of scallions, grilled or pan seared

2 Tbsp parsley, finely chopped

2 Tbsp cilantro, finely chopped

1 lemon zest and juice

1 large shallot, finely diced

1 garlic close, grated

1 Tbsp Calabrian chili or peppadew peppers, finely diced

3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil

1 Tbsp grapeseed oil or avocado

Salt & pepper to taste


Preparation

  1. Grill or sear scallions and cool down in the fridge for 15-20 min.

  2. Once cooled finely chop them, add the scallions and all other ingredients into a mixing bowl.

  3. Add salt and pepper and check the flavor. If needed, add more salt and pepper until it has the desired flavor you are looking for.

Notes from the Chef

It’s best to make this a few hours before you serve it to really let the flavors combine.

The shelf life for this recipe is 2-3 days. After that amount of time, it will start to lose its nice green color, but will still be safe to eat. This pairs very well with almost any grilled protein or veggie, especially fish, steak and chicken.

Time to get cooking! Try this recipe at home and bring the tastes of Palmetto Dunes to your kitchen. All Alexander’s Cooking Demonstrations are $25 a person and includes a glass of sparkling wine and culinary gift to take home. We hope to see you at Alexander’s Restaurant your next Hilton Head Island vacation for a cooking demo or lagoon side dinner.

Players navigate obstacle-filled stages in Geometry Dash Lite by controlling a geometric emblem that advances on its own. Staying precisely in time with the background music while jumping, flying, and avoiding platforms, spikes, and traps is the goal.

This cooking demo got me through a frustrating afternoon when my oven broke mid-meal prep! I had scallions charring under the broiler when it just quit, leaving me with a kitchen smelling of smoke and half-raw ingredients. Instead of panicking, I called for oven repair Glenview IL at Ultrafix. Fixing my 12-year-old oven felt so much better than replacing it - not just cheaper, but it’s a familiar, reliable piece of my home. I got to finish Alexander’s chimichurri that night, and every time I use my oven now, I’m grateful it has more stories left in it.

The hand-drawn art style of Doodle Baseball imparts a certain allure. In Doodle Baseball, the background illustrations contribute to the ambiance. The images render each situation whimsical.
