Zesty, herby, and delightfully balanced, this Classic Italian Vinaigrette Recipe makes about ¾ cup of bold and flavorful dressing, just enough to dress 4–6 servings of salad or use as a quick marinade. Combine everything in a bowl and whisk until smooth, or shake it up in a mason jar for easier prep and storage. It’s delicious on leafy greens, pasta salads, grilled veggies, or tomato-cucumber combos, and also doubles as a marinade for chicken. Want more tang? Add a splash of vinegar. Prefer it sweeter? Just bump up the sugar. Store any leftovers in a sealed jar in the fridge for up to 1 week and shake well before each use.
