Greek Salad Dressing & Marinade
A delicious and flavorful homemade dressing that's perfect for salads, pasta salads, or as a marinade for chicken, beef, or lamb.
Servings servings
Ingredients
- ¼ cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
- ¼ cup white vinegar
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon seasoning salt
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes this will not make the dressing spicy, just flavorful
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 4 cloves garlic smashed and peeled
- 1 cup oil I recommend a neutral oil, but if you're using this as a marinade, I wouldn't use really nice olive oil; save that for use on salads
- ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
- ¾ teaspoon Greek or Italian seasoning
- ¼ teaspoon dry oregano
Instructions
- In the jar of a blender, combine the lemon juice, vinegar, salt seasoning salt, sugar, pepper, red pepper, and garlic. Blend until smooth.
- While the blender is running, add the oil in a steady stream. Turn off the blender and add the feta and pulse the blender a few times (more if you want a creamier consistency).
- Whisk in the herbs. If possible, refrigerate for at least an hour before serving. Use as a marinade for chicken, lamb, or flank steak or drizzle over a Greek salad.
Notes
- Store finished dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator and enjoy within 3-4 days for best results. Just give it a good shake before using.
