• 1 cup fresh cilantro leaves
• 0.5 cup fresh basil leaves
• 0.25 cup fresh chives
• 3 large garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 0.5 cup extra virgin olive oil

Step 5

Pour in the lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, and apple cider vinegar.

Step 6

Sprinkle in the salt and black pepper.

Step 7

Pulse the mixture until it is smooth but retains some texture; you want it slightly chunky for a rustic feel.
