Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 0.25 cup red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon dijon mustard (Whole30 compliant)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the red wine vinegar, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard. Whisk together until well blended.
Add minced garlic, dried oregano, dried basil, dried thyme, sea salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes to the bowl. Whisk again to combine all the dry ingredients evenly.
Slowly drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil while continuously whisking. This will help emulsify the vinaigrette for a smoother consistency.
Add the water and whisk again, ensuring all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Taste the vinaigrette and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or lemon juice to taste.
Transfer the vinaigrette to a sealable jar or bottle for storage.
Shake the vinaigrette well before each use as separation may occur.
Serve over your favorite salad or use as a marinade for chicken or vegetables to add a burst of Greek-inspired flavor.
