- 2/3 cup sherry wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
- 4 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano leaves
- 3 tablespoons minced garlic
- 2 tablespoons minced shallots
- 3/4 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
- 2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
Directions
In the bowl of a food processor, combine the olive oil, sherry vinegar, lemon juice, parsley, basil, oregano, garlic and shallots. Pulse until well blended but do not puree. Add 1/4 teaspoon of the black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and the crushed red pepper.
