Ingredients
- 1 jalapeño, seeded and chopped
- 1 clove minced garlic
- ⅓ cup lime juice
- ⅛ cup honey
- 2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
- 1-2 teaspoon garlic salt (with parsley flakes)
- ¼ cup cilantro leaves, packed
- ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Using a food processor, or a blender, pulse the jalapeno pepper and garlic clove until they're finely chopped.
- Add the lime juice, honey, vinegar, 1 tsp garlic salt and cilantro. Pulse a few more times then blend.
- While blending slowly drizzle in the olive oil.
- Once the olive oil is incorporated use remaining garlic salt to taste.
Southwest Salad
- This easy southwest salad pairs well with the dressing: 1-2 heads of lettuce, 2 cobs of raw white corn kernels, 1 large can of black beans drained and rinsed, 1 bag of Monterrey Jack Cheese, 1 red onion sliced, cilantro, diced tomatoes, sliced avocado, and sliced grilled chicken breast.
Notes
- Mix in the oil, don’t blend. When you blend olive oil it can take on a bitter flavor. It’s something I just learned and is the reason you want to blend all the ingredients, and then mix in the olive oil.
- Creamy texture. Add ½ of a ripe avocado or Greek yogurt.
- STORE. Keep the cilantro lime sauce in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Make sure the dressing does not stay at room temperature for more than two hours.
