    "After having a delicious TGI Friday's grilled chicken salad, I was determined to figure out the Cilantro-Lime salad dressing served with it. This is what I came up with. Delicious for a quick summery dinner. Grilled boneless chicken breasts served over a hearty green salad, and this dressing, voila!"

    Ingredients:
    1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and coarsely chopped
    1 clove garlic
    3/4 teaspoon minced fresh ginger root
    1/4 cup lime juice
    1/3 cup honey
    2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
    Salt to taste
    1/4 cup packed cilantro leaves
    1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil

    Directions:
    1. Place the jalapeno pepper, garlic clove, and ginger into a food processor or blender; pulse until the jalapeno and garlic are finely chopped.

    Pour in the lime juice, honey, balsamic vinegar, and salt, add the cilantro leaves; pulse a few times to blend.

    Turn the food processor or blender on, and slowly drizzle in the olive oil until incorporated into the dressing. Season to taste with salt before serving.
