Voodoo Dressing

Another one of my random finds.  I actually don't remember where I came across this recipe.

This dressing is phenomenal.  I tossed it with cold, shredded rotisserie chicken and served it on warm naan bread with sliced tomatoes and feta cheese, with garlic-stuffed olives and marinated mushrooms on the side.  Awesome dinner!

You could do so much with the dressing.  Just over a regular salad, or you could toss it with shredded pork or beef.  Adam and John had the suggestion of pairing it with rice or pasta.  So, very versatile stuff.

And, as always, I made some changes to the recipe.  I've noted with an * the ingredients that were in the original recipe or noted in (_) what others changes I made.

You will need:

  • 2 Tablespoons Dijon Mustard
  • 2 Tablespoons lime juice
  • 2 Tablespoons chili paste *  (I didn't have this and couldn't find it at the store.  However, it would make this dressing even better, I think.)
  • 1 Tablespoon crushed red peper
  • 1/3 cup mayonaise
  • 3/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 cup white wine vinegar (I used red wine vinegar)
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce 
  • 3/4 cup of sugar (This seemed excessive.  I used 1/2 cup).
  • 2 Tablespoons minced garlic
  • 2 Tablespoons ginger*  (I didn't use this at all)
Put everything into your blender and mix until smooth.  Do with it what you will.  

Trust me.  It is good.
