Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole ripe mango (peeled and diced)
- 1 whole habanero pepper (seeded and diced)
- 3 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 0.25 cup olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon optional water (for thinning)
Instructions
Place the diced mango and habanero pepper in a blender or food processor.
Add lime juice, honey, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to the blender.
Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides of the blender if necessary to ensure all ingredients are fully incorporated.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning, adding more honey for sweetness, lime juice for brightness, or salt for balance if needed.
If the dressing is too thick, add water in small increments (1 tablespoon at a time) and blend again until the desired consistency is reached.
Transfer the dressing to a mason jar or airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Drizzle over your favorite salad, roasted veggies, or grilled chicken for a bold and flavorful kick.
