nocoupons

• 3 scallions, roughly chopped
• 1/2 cup cilantro leaves, loosely packed
• 1/4 cup oregano leaves, loosely packed
• 1 jalapeno, seeds and ribs removed, roughly chopped
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• juice of 1/2 lemon
• salt, to taste

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Place salami slices on a cooling rack set on top of a baking sheet and place in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until edges curl up and salami is crispy but not burned. Remove from oven and set aside.

Meanwhile make the Chimichurri Dressing: combine all ingredients in a food processor and puree until smooth. Set aside.

To assemble Salami Bites, top each salami crisp with a rounded spoonful of chopped peppers and a tablespoon of crumbled queso fresco. Drizzle a tablespoon of Chimichurri Dressing over the top of each and serve.
