Blend all ingredients in a food processor until smooth. 2. Divide the mixture in half. 3. Place half in a zip-loc bag with portobello mushrooms or seitan to marinate for 1 to 12 hours (depending on the thickness of the cut). 4. Toss the other half with hot cooked pasta. ### Notes: Pebre is a tangy Chilean condiment that makes a great marinade and an even better pasta sauce or chip dip. There are lots of variations out there, but this one is quick and simple, and accentuates the great flavors of cilantro and parsley. Note: The original recipe suggested marinating steak. This has been substituted with portobello mushrooms or seitan to make the recipe fully vegan. **Serving info:** Total recipe: 285g · Yields 6 portions · Portion size: 47g | Nutrient | Per 100g | Per Portion | % Daily Value | |---|---|---|---| | Energy (kcal) | 178 | 85 | 4% | | Carbohydrates (g) | 8.4 | 4.0 | 1% | | ↳ of which sugars (g) | 3.5 | 1.7 | 3% | | Dietary fiber (g) | 1.8 | 0.9 | 3% | | Protein (g) | 1.1 | 0.5 | 1% | | Total fat (g) | 16.1 | 7.7 | 10% | | ↳ Saturated (g) | 2.3 | 1.1 | 6% | | ↳ Monounsaturated (g) | 9.5 | 4.5 | - | | ↳ Polyunsaturated (g) | 3.8 | 1.8 | - | | ↳ Trans (g) | 0 | 0 | - | | Sodium (mg) | 480 | 228 | 10% | | Calcium (mg) | 45 | 21 | 2% | | Iron (mg) | 1.5 | 0.7 | 4% | | Potassium (mg) | 180 | 85 | 2% | | Vitamin C (mg) | 35 | 17 | 19% | | Vitamin B12 (µg) | 0 | 0 | 0% | ### Ingredient data sources - Parsley, fresh — 60g — Parsley, fresh — USDA FDC - Cilantro, fresh — 16g — Coriander (cilantro) leaves, raw — USDA FDC - Onion, chopped — 80g — Onions, raw — USDA FDC - Oil-and-vinegar dressing — 120g — Salad dressing, oil and vinegar — USDA FDC - Tabasco sauce — 5g — Sauce, ready-to-serve, pepper, TABASCO — USDA FDC - Salt — 3g — Salt, table — USDA FDC ⚠️ = estimated or sourced outside the listed databases. % Daily Value based on FDA 2020 Daily Values for adults (2,000 kcal diet).
