- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
- 1 cup Extra virgin olive oil
- 1 clove Garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Kosher salt

Instructions
Roughly chop the chipotle peppers and peel the garlic clove.

Blend on high speed until the ingredients are fully combined and the mixture is smooth.
While the blender is running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil to emulsify the dressing and create a silky consistency.
