You can adjust the heat, but you can’t hide completely from the spice of this sauce! This is not a marinade, but rather a sauce that you can serve with your cooked meats. I prefer to serve it with something strong like grilled flank steak. We tried it with fish, and it was just too overpowering. Chicken? Maybe.

Spicy Hot Cilantro Sauce
1/2 c fresh cilantro leaves
1/2 c fresh mint leaves
1 clove of garlic, crushed
2 T coarse brown mustard
1 T lemon juice
1/3 c olive oil
Tabasco sauce to taste
Either process or blend (I used a hand-held wand beater) all ingredients. Serve with robust meat, on the side.
