This vibrant and creamy dressing is perfect for elevating your salads with a burst of flavor.
Peel and chop the garlic clove into smaller pieces.
Chopping the garlic helps it blend more evenly into the dressing.
Combine the garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, black pepper, and artichoke hearts in a blender.
Layer the ingredients in the blender to ensure smooth blending.
Blend the mixture until it becomes smooth and creamy.
Blend in short bursts to avoid overheating the mixture.
Transfer the dressing to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Chilling allows the flavors to meld together for a richer taste.
Serve the dressing over your favorite salad greens or use as a marinade.
Drizzle the dressing just before serving to keep the salad fresh.
