Ingredients
1 fresh lemon, preferably organic
1/2 bunch fresh parsley, either flat Italian parsley or regular curly parsley
2-3 cloves garlic
1 T finely minced lemon peel
1/4 cup finely minced parsley
2 tsp. finely minced garlic
Directions
Using a very sharp vegetable peeler, peel the lemon, taking care not to get the white part that’s right under the peel. Using your sharpest chef’s knife, finely mince the lemon peel until you have 1 tablespoon finely minced lemon peel. Wash the parsley if needed and spin dry with salad spinner, or dry with paper towels. Mince the parsley until you have 1/4 cup finely minced parsley. Smash the garlic cloves with the side of your knife to break them apart, then finely mince the garlic until you have 2 teaspoons finely minced garlic. Combine the finely minced lemon peel, parsley, and garlic in a small bowl and use to sprinkle over cooked fish, chicken, vegetables, pasta, or other foods.
