Santa Fe Salad Dressing
3 cloves garlic
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
2 bunches cilantro, (rinsed well, most of stalky ends trimmed off) finely chopped
1/2 cup fresh lime juice
1 1/2 teaspoon vinegar
1/2 teaspoon cumin
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon honey
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup canola oil
1/4 cup olive oil
DIRECTIONS:
Drop garlic cloves and ginger through the feed tube of food processor while motor is on. Mince well. Add the cilantro and process until finely chopped. Add spices, lime juice, vinegar, honey, and Parmesan cheese. Process until well mixed. With motor running slowly pour the oil through the feed tube. Let process one more minute.
If I would have thought about it, I would have dropped a spoonful of mayo in to tighten the dressing up.
I serve it with greens, peppers, corn, black beans, tons of chopped cilantro, grilled chicken chunks or the shreds of a rotisserie chicken, tortilla strips, Mexican cheese (I think cheddar or regular cheeses get lots and start to disintegrate in the salad if not eat right away... )
