A zesty, simple emulsified vinaigrette with lemon and lime and little cubes of fresh avocados
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- ½ teaspoon lemon rind, finely grated
- ½ teaspoon lime rind, finely grated
- ½ teaspoon fresh jalapeño, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh shallot, peeled, minced
- 1 teaspoon raw honey
- ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil*
- 2 tablespoons fresh avocado, cut in to little 1/4" cubes
Instructions
- Place the first 7 ingredients (lemon juice through honey) in a small bowl. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil to emulsify with a fork or whisk. Add the avocado cubes, stir in.
- Will stay fresh for 2 days refrigerated in a clean glass jar. Or, add the avocado to the vinaigrette before serving (let stand 1/2 hour to infuse the flavors.) Vinaigrette lasts a few weeks refrigerated without the avocado.
- *Like avocado oil? Can use half avocado oil and half olive oil in the recipe.
- Serve with: Wood Fired Beet Salad with Avocado-Citrus Vinaigrette (see recipe)
