Ingredients

• 1 cup fresh cilantro leaves
• 0.5 cup lime juice
• 0.25 cup extra virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
• 1 clove garlic clove, minced
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons water

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the fresh cilantro leaves under cold running water to remove any dirt or debris. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towel.

Step 2

In a blender or food processor, combine the measured cilantro leaves, fresh lime juice, extra virgin olive oil, and white wine vinegar.

Step 3

Peel and mince one garlic clove and add it to the blender.

Step 4

Add ground cumin, salt, and black pepper to the mix in the blender.

Step 5

Pour in the water, which will help achieve a smooth consistency without adding sugar.

Step 6

Blend the ingredients on high speed until smooth and well combined, about 30 seconds to 1 minute. You might need to stop and scrape down the sides of the blender once or twice.

Step 7

Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or lime juice to achieve the desired flavor.

Step 8

Transfer the sugar-free cilantro lime dressing to a jar with a lid or a pourable container and refrigerate it for at least an hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 9

Shake well before using. The dressing can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one week.
