Jalapeno Lime Dressing and Marinade

One of my kitchen secrets is that I use marinades and salad dressings interchangeably. I don't know if this is something a classically trained chef would ever do, but I rather make one batch of marinade and be able to use it for many different dishes. I love this dressing/ marinade with massage kale and other Tex- Mex type flavors.

Jalapeno- Lime Dressing and Marinade

1/2c olive oil

1/4c fresh lime juice

1 jalapeno, deseeded and chopped thin

1 garlic clove, minced

zest of 1 lime

Whisk or blend all ingredients, leave the oil for last.
