Charred Lemon Garlic Vinaigrette

This charred lemon-garlic vinaigrette picks up a pleasant smoky flavor from the grill. The garlic cooks just enough to mellow its flavor, and maple syrup balances the acidity nicely.

Ingredients:

  • 2 large cloves garlic, unpeeled
  • 1 large lemon, halved
  • ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
  • 1 ½ teaspoons pure maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon ground pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Directions:

  1. Preheat grill to medium.
  2. Place garlic cloves on a small piece of foil. Place on the grill along with the lemon halves (cut-side down). Grill until the lemon has distinct grill marks and the garlic has softened, 4 to 6 minutes.
  3. When cool enough to handle, juice the lemon. Remove and discard the garlic skins and finely chop the garlic. Place the lemon juice and the chopped garlic in a jar with a tight-fitting lid. Add oil, basil, maple syrup, pepper and salt. Cover and shake well to combine.
