Chili Lime Salad Dressing Recipe
This Chili Lime Salad Dressing blends fresh lime juice and zest with red wine vinegar, soy sauce, honey, and olive oil. The addition of garlic, red pepper flakes, cumin, and salt creates a dressing with a balance of bright citrus, savory depth, and mild heat. This vinaigrette develops more flavor when chilled for a couple of hours, making it an excellent accompaniment to green salads or grilled vegetables.
