In a small mixing bowl or jar, combine the honey and fresh lime juice. Whisk or stir until the honey is fully dissolved.
Slowly add the olive oil while whisking continuously to create a smooth, emulsified mixture.
Add the red chili flakes, ground cumin, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Mix thoroughly to combine all the ingredients.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning as necessary by adding more salt, pepper, or chili flakes to suit your preference.
Transfer the dressing to a serving jar or bottle and use immediately, or store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Shake or stir well before serving, especially if stored, to re-emulsify the ingredients.
