Ingredients

• 1 large ripe mango
• 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
• 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
• 2 teaspoons honey
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 small garlic clove, minced
• 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
• 1 tablespoon water (optional, for thinning)

Directions

Step 1

Peel the mango and cut the flesh away from the pit. Roughly chop the mango pieces and add them to a blender or food processor.

Step 2

Add extra-virgin olive oil, lime juice, white wine vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, sea salt, and black pepper to the blender.

Step 3

Blend the ingredients on high speed until smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides with a spatula if needed to ensure all ingredients are well incorporated.

Step 4

Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning, adding more lime juice for acidity, honey for sweetness, or salt and pepper as desired.

Step 5

If the dressing is too thick, add water one tablespoon at a time and blend again until the desired consistency is achieved.

Step 6

Transfer the mango dressing to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to let the flavors meld together.

Step 7

Serve the dressing drizzled over your favorite Mediterranean salads, grilled vegetables, or roasted fish. Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
