Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup roughly chopped cilantro
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Method
 

  1. Place all of the ingredients (cilantro, olive oil, lime juice, garlic, honey, and salt) in a small food processor or a blender.
  2. Pulse or blend the mixture until it is smooth and well combined.
  3. Transfer the vibrant green cilantro sauce to an airtight non-reactive container.
  4. Store in the refrigerator until ready to use.

Notes

- For the most vibrant color and flavor, use fresh, bright green cilantro and avoid any wilted leaves. - If your sauce is too thick, add a tiny splash of water or a bit more olive oil until it reaches your desired consistency.
- If you don't have a food processor, a blender works just as well; you might need to scrape down the sides a few times.
