- – 1/2 cup (120ml) fresh basil
- – 1/4 cup (60ml) fresh parsley, stems roughly chopped
- – 1/4 cup (60ml) fresh chives, roughly chopped
- – 3 Tablespoons (45ml) fresh lemon juice

- – Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

- For a creamier texture, incorporate a tablespoon of Greek yogurt or sour cream into the mixture.
