Add the garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper. Whisk together once more until all the spices are fully incorporated into the dressing.
Stir in the fresh lemon juice for a touch of brightness and balance.
Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or pepper to taste.
Transfer the dressing into an airtight container or a glass jar with a lid. Store in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Shake well before using to recombine any separated ingredients.
