Elevate your salads with the zesty, tropical flavors of Island Vinaigrette, a quick and vibrant dressing that's ready in just 10 minutes! Bursting with freshly squeezed orange and lime juice, this light and tangy vinaigrette is perfectly balanced with a touch of honey and the subtle heat of crushed red pepper flakes. Dijon mustard, finely minced garlic, and fresh grated ginger give the dressing depth and complexity, while extra-virgin olive oil creates a smooth, emulsified finish. Ideal for brightening up a crisp summer salad or drizzling over grilled vegetables, this versatile dressing is a must-have in your kitchen. Whip up a batch, store it in the fridge, and bring the fresh, sunny flavors of the tropics to your table all week long!
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the orange juice, lime juice, honey, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, grated ginger, salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes.
Gradually whisk in the olive oil, pouring in a steady stream, until the mixture emulsifies and thickens slightly.
Taste the vinaigrette and adjust seasoning, adding more salt, pepper, or honey if needed to suit your preferences.
Transfer the vinaigrette to a clean jar or bottle for storage. Shake well before each use as some separation may occur.
Use immediately on your favorite salad or store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
