Salsarita's launches Chimichurri Fajita Burrito

March 25, 2013

Salsarita's launched Chimichurri Fajita Burrito today and will serve it for a limited-time only. As part of the promotion, guests will receive plantable herb seed-infused paper with each Chimichurri Fajita Burrito purchase. The chain encourages guests to plant their own herb garden and create their own bold flavors at home, according to a company press release.

The new burrito presents a twist on chimichurri, a classic Argentinean sauce: The chain's recipe uses cilantro and roasted poblano peppers as a base instead of the traditional parsley, along with white vinegar, oil, garlic, red onions and lime juice.

Guests can also order chimichurri as an alternative to Salsarita's many salsa varieties. It offers a tangy complement to salads, tacos and other dishes, and pairs exceptionally well with the grilled-to-perfection Fajita Vegetables, which can be added to any dish, said Salsarita's CEO Phil Friedman.

"We're thrilled to unveil the new Chimichurri Fajita Burrito," he said. "The flavor profile is bold and exciting – it's our own take on a classic recipe, reflecting our ability to take inspiration from both traditional and modern influences to create something totally unexpected and absolutely delicious."
