Best Lemon Garlic Dressing Recipes

GRILLED CHICKEN WITH GARLIC-HERB DRESSING AND GRILLED LEMON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Cut a piece of aluminium foil about 12 inches long.
• Put the garlic on 1/2 of the foil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, drizzle in some olive oil, and add 2 sprigs of thyme. Fold the foil enclosing the garlic, making a pouch, and add a couple teaspoons of water. Fold the foil over the garlic to enclose and fold in the edges 2 or 3 times to seal. Put the package in the oven and roast for 30 minutes, or longer, until the garlic is soft. Open the package and let the garlic cool a bit, then squeeze out the cloves into a food processor or blender. Add 1/2 cup olive oil, the lemon juice, parsley, and thyme leaves and puree to make a thick vinaigrette.
• Preheat an outdoor gas or charcoal grill to medium heat.
• Rinse the chicken and pat dry with paper towels. Put the pieces in a bowl, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and drizzle with olive oil; toss to coat with the seasonings and then refrigerate while you get everything else together.
• Put the radicchio in another bowl, drizzle with olive oil, balsamic vinegar. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss; set aside.
• When you're ready to cook, take a few paper towels and fold them several times to make a thick square. Blot a small amount of oil on the paper towel and carefully and quickly wipe the hot grates of the grill to make a nonstick surface.
• Season with salt and pepper and place the radicchio quarters on the preheated grill. Cook the radicchio for about 2 minutes per side until it has a nice char; pull it off the grill, place into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and set aside to steam and finish cooking.
• Then put the chicken on the grill, skin side down, and grill. Grill the chicken for about 20 minutes, turning once, then baste with about half of the vinaigrette and keep cooking until an instant-read thermometer stuck into the thickest part of the thigh reads 160 degrees F and the chicken is nice and caramelised all over, 15 to 20 more minutes. During the last few minutes, throw the lemon halves on the grill, cut sides down, and cook until just marked and smoky.
• To serve, separate the radicchio into individual leaves in a big bowl. Add the chicken and the rest of the dressing and toss well. Serve with grilled lemon halves, squeeze the lemon over the chicken, and top with reserved dressing.

BONNIE'S ROMAINE SALAD WITH LEMON GARLIC DRESSING

Steps:

• 1. Use a clean pint jar for the dressing.
• 2. Juice the lemon, picking out the seeds. Save the pulpy part as it gives it more flavor. Do not use bottled lemon. If the lemon is hard, zap it in the microwave for 30 seconds to get the juice flowing. Add the juice to the jar.
• 3. Crush the 2 cloves of garlic in a garlic press. If you are a true garlic lover, you can use 3 cloves. Don't use bottled garlic. Add the garlic and the pulpy parts to the jar.
• 4. Add 1/2 cup of Canola oil to the jar.
• 5. Salt to taste. Start with a teaspoon and go from there. Taste test it to see if it has enough salt. Shake the jar vigorously, and watch it turn a milky color. Place it in the refrigerator and chill at least 30 minutes before serving.
• 6. It should be sort of milky in color.
• 7. Make a simple salad of Romaine lettuce and sliced tomatoes and place in a large bowl for tossing. You may use iceberg, but I think Romaine is better. Tear the lettuce into bite size pieces. I use a salad spinner to get the lettuce as dry as possible. If you do not have a salad spinner, blot the leaves with paper towels. Don't cut with a knife as it wilts the lettuce. Add one large sliced tomato to the lettuce. Chill in the refrigerator. When you are ready to serve the salad, shake the dressing vigorously and pour enough to coat the lettuce, not drown it, and serve immediately.
• 8. This recipe is enough salad dressing to last me for the week. I also enjoy sliced home grown tomatoes on a bed of lettuce with this dressing drizzled over the tomatoes. (Leftover salad will not keep with dressing on it, so pour it on just before serving.) Enjoy!
