Ingredients

• 1 cup Fresh cilantro
• 3 tablespoons Freshly squeezed lime juice
• 0.25 cup Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon White vinegar
• 2 teaspoons Honey
• 2 small Garlic cloves
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.125 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 2 tablespoons Water

Directions

Step 1

Wash the cilantro thoroughly and dry it using paper towels or a clean kitchen towel. Roughly chop the cilantro leaves and stems.

Step 2

Peel the garlic cloves and finely mince them or crush them using a garlic press.

Step 3

In a blender or food processor, combine the chopped cilantro, lime juice, olive oil, white vinegar, honey, minced garlic, ground black pepper, ground cumin, and water.

Step 4

Blend the ingredients on a medium speed setting until the mixture is smooth and well combined. If the dressing is too thick, you can add additional water one teaspoon at a time to reach the desired consistency.

Step 5

Taste the dressing and adjust the flavor if needed. If you prefer more citrus, add a bit more lime juice. If a touch of sweetness is desired, add a bit more honey.

Step 6

Transfer the dressing to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate for at least an hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 7

Shake well before serving. This dressing can be refrigerated for up to one week.
