Serrano-Mint Dressing

By Joelene

Ingredients

• 1-1/3 cups loosely packed fresh mint leaves
• 2/3 cup loosely packed fresh cilantro leaves
• 1/2 to 1 serrano pepper, to taste, stemmed and seeded
• 4 tablespoons honey
• 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
• 1/2 cup olive oil

Preparation

Step 1

Combine the mint, cilantro, serrano, honey, soy sauce, and vinegar in a blender and process until smooth. With the blender running, add the olive oil and mix until emulsified, about 1 minute.

NOTE: Serrano peppers are hotter than jalapenos, ranging from hot to very hot, so adjust the amount you use to suit your taste.
