Ingredients
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 small garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper
Instructions
1. Measure out all your ingredients and have them ready to go.
2. In a small bowl or jar with a lid, combine the red wine vinegar, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, and dried oregano.
3. Stir or shake vigorously to blend all the ingredients.
4. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking, or shake well in the jar to emulsify.
5. Add the salt and pepper, then taste and adjust as needed.
6. Let the vinaigrette rest for 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
7. Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator in a sealed container for up to 1 week.
Notes
Use freshly squeezed lemon juice for the brightest, cleanest flavor.
Let the vinaigrette rest before serving to mellow out the garlic.
If storing in the fridge, bring it to room temperature and shake before using as the oil may solidify.
