Lemon and Basil Vinaigrette Serving Suggestion
I recently grilled vegetables to make a Grilled Vegetable Pasta Salad (picture below) and the perfect way to dress this salad was with the grilled lemon and basil vinaigrette. This dish is perfect of for a light dinner or a tasty lunch on-the-go.
Why Grill Lemons?
Grilling is a great way to transform the flavor of a lemon. Not only does it help release the lemon juices, but it makes the juice sweeter and slightly smokey. No grill? No problem. You can place the cut-side of the lemon into a cast iron skillet or heavy pan over high heat until it is lightly charred.
