Whenever a dish calls for a bit of vibrancy, this classic Italian herb sauce is a perfect condiment. It's great on virtually all proteins or vegetables - it's harder to think of a dish where it wouldn't work!

Traditionally, gremolata calls for chopped garlic as well, but I'm not as partial to the raw garlic flavor in this case. Feel free to add it in!
