3-Minute Italian Dressing
Quick and easy Italian vinaigrette that is THE BEST marinade ever for grilled chicken or vegetables.
Servings 2 tablespoon servings
Ingredients
- ¼ cup white vinegar
- ¼ cup lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon dry mustard
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes this really doesn't add much heat; it's better with it!
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 4 cloves garlic
- 1 cup neutral oil or extra-virgin olive oil
- ⅓ cup Parmesan cheese either fresh or from a can
- ¾ tsp. Italian seasoning add more if needed
Instructions
- Place vinegar, lemon juice, sugar, mustard, salt, red pepper flakes, black pepper, and garlic in the jar of a blender and blend until smooth. While the blender is running, add the oil in a steady stream. Remove the blender jar from the blender and mix in the cheese and Italian seasoning by hand. Transfer to a storage or serving container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
Notes
- Store finished dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator and enjoy within 7-10 days for best results.
- If the dressing separates in the fridge, just give it a good shake before using.
- If using as a marinade, I recommend marinating for 4-8 hours.
