1/2 xup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1–2 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Dried Oregano
1/2 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Ground Black Pepper
1 tsp Dijon Mustard (optional)

Directions

Add the lemon juice, Olive oil, garlic, oregano, salt, pepper, and Dijon mustard (if using) to a bowl or jar.
Whisk continuously until the sauce becomes slightly creamy and emulsified.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Let it rest for 10–15 minutes before serving for the best flavor.
Shake or whisk again if it separates.

Notes

This recipe yields about ¾ cup of sauce, making it perfect for multiple servings across salads, grilled meats, or roasted vegetables.
For adjustments, you can increase lemon juice for extra tang, add more olive oil for a milder finish, or include Dijon mustard for a creamier texture and deeper flavor.
A pinch of honey can also be added if you prefer a slightly softer, rounded taste profile.
