Description

Cilantro Lime Vinaigrette is a refreshing, zesty dressing that combines the bright flavors of fresh cilantro and lime. This versatile vinaigrette is perfect for dressing salads, marinating meats, or adding a splash of flavor to grilled vegetables.


Ingredients

Scale

1 cup vegetable oil (you can use olive oil or avocado oil)
1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
1/4 cup lime juice
1/4 cup white wine vinegar
3 cloves garlic
2 teaspoon sugar (any sweetener works)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt


Instructions

In a blender or food processor, combine lime juice, vinegar, garlic, salt, and sugar. Blend until well combined.
With the food processor running, add in a slow stream of oil.
Pulse in the cilantro. You want the cilantro to be well blended, but still be able to see plenty of flecks.
Store in the fridge. Shake or stir well before serving.

Notes

  • For a creamier texture, add a small piece of ripe avocado and blend until smooth.
  • Adjust the honey/agave nectar according to your preferred sweetness level.
