Quick Lemon & Garlic Aioli

By Foodiewife

This lemon and garlic aioli is a great excuse to grill up some artichokes. The bread makes the aioli creamy and delicious and lemon gives it an extra zest.

Ingredients

• 1 slice white bread 1/2-inch thick, crust removed
• 2 tablespoons champagne or white wine vinegar
• 6 large garlic cloves, chopped
• 1 1/2 cups mayo
• 2 teaspoon grated lemon zest
• 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
• Kosher salt
• Freshly ground black pepper
• Parsley

Preparation

Step 1

For the aioli, tear the slice of bread into pieces and place in a bowl. Pour the vinegar over the bread, and set aside for 5 minutes.

Place the garlic cloves, zest, juice, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade.

Add the bread, and puree into a paste.

Add mayo and process until it is incorporated. Place in a serving bowl.
