3 Minute Lemon Vinaigrette

Ingredients


  • 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil


  • 1/2 cup lemon juice, if you are juicing the lemon fresh include the zest for extra punch


  • 1 tbsp garlic, minced or grated


  • 1/4 of a white onion, minced or grated


  • 1 tsp Cajun seasoning (I use Tony's low sodium)


  • 1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper


  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt (1 tsp if using a 'salt free' Cajun blend)


  • 1/8 tsp cayenne (optional)

Directions


Combine all ingredients in a mason jar, close the lid tightly and shake! Store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. This can be used as dressing on salads, pastas, vegetables and as a marinade on meats and seafood. It is incredibly versatile and can be altered by adding fresh or dried herbs.
