Ingredients
- 2 garlic cloves, rough chopped
- 2 shallots, rough chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 large basil leaves, chopped
- 2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
- zest of 1 orange
- 5 tablespoons fresh orange juice
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Instructions
- In a medium sized bowl, add the garlic, shallot and salt. Muddle until a rough paste is formed.

Notes
This vinaigrette pairs deliciously with the Arugula Manchego Orange Salad (click here for recipe). Also, this recipe is make-head friendly. It will stay in the fridge for a little over a week.
