I have a new found love for lemon vinaigrette  after having a side salad at Fleetwoods On Maui. They made a fabulous butter lettuce side salad with a lemon vinaigrette. With executive chef Scott Leibfried of Hells Kitchen you know the food was divine!

So for the first meal back at the good old homestead I decided to reconstruct the lemon vinaigrette.

I am now even more in love then I was the first time I tried it, and it made an amazing marinade for the Salmon I will post later. 

Mix lemon juice and olive oil in a shake-able container. Add water and shake well. 

Press garlic into vinaigrette.

Add sea salt, pepper, thyme, and basil.

Shake well and refrigerate until ready to use.

Enjoy over the top of your favorite salad or as a marinade for fish or shrimp.
