Oh my goodness! I could pour this luscious Amazing Parmesan Dressing on just about anything. Marinate it on chicken, shrimp, fish, turkey, drizzle over salads—trust me, there is a place for it on your dinner table and in your belly.

What I love most about this dressing is how lemony it is. I add freshly squeezed lemon juice and the zest for more lemon power. There is also the perfect amount of sweetness to combat the sharpness of the citrus. Lastly, let’s not forget the star of the show, the parmesan cheese—which gives it more depth of flavor.

Olive Oil—which gives a nice, smooth buttery flavor.

Lemon juice—will be the acid that adds bright summery vibes and flavor.

Lemon zest—promotes that lemony flavor that gives it the perfect pow!

Parmesan cheese—freshly grated, add a deep flavor, and additional saltiness.

Garlic—more flavor!

Maple syrup—will help to cut the sharpness of the lemon juice and provide a well-balanced dressing.

Ingredients
 

  • ⅓ cup olive oil
  • ⅓ cup lemon juice about 1 large lemon
  • 1 clove garlic finely minced
  • ¼ cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • 2 tsp pure maple syrup
  • 1 tsp freshly chopped parsley optional
  • 1 tsp salt
  • pepper to taste

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl, add all of the ingredients and mix well until a delicious homologized dressing forms. I like to mix well for about one minute straight to crush the garlic a little better and force those ingredients together.
  • Enjoy immediately over a bed of salad or use it for a marinade (see notes).

Notes

If using this dressing for a marinade. I would use this recipe for every 1 1/2 pounds of meat. Multiply according for the best results.
Don’t have parsley? Use dill, fresh mint, or oregano instead.
Don’t want garlic breath? Use ginger in place of the garlic.
