Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 clove Garlic
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Water (optional, for thinning)

Directions

Step 1

Peel and finely mince the garlic clove or use a garlic press for convenience.

Step 2

In a small mixing bowl or jar with a lid, combine the extra-virgin olive oil, fresh lime juice, honey, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

Whisk the ingredients together in the bowl until fully emulsified, or, if using a jar, secure the lid tightly and shake vigorously for about 30 seconds until the vinaigrette is well-combined.

Step 4

Taste the vinaigrette and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt, pepper, or lime juice as needed. If you prefer a thinner consistency, mix in 1 teaspoon of water at a time until the desired thickness is achieved.

Step 5

Serve immediately, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. If refrigerated, let the vinaigrette sit at room temperature for a few minutes and shake or whisk again before using.
