Recipe: Green Goddess Dressing over Iceberg Wedges

GREEN GODDESS DRESSING OVER ICEBERG WEDGES
Source: Michael Chiarello
Yield: 5 servings

2 medium avocados, pitted, peeled, grilled and chopped into cubes
2 tablespoons lemon or lime juice
1 tablespoon roughly chopped basil leaves
1 tablespoon roughly chopped tarragon leaves
1 clove garlic, minced
1/8 teaspoon asorbic acid or Vitamin C
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Grey salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 head iceberg lettuce cut into 5 wedges

In a food processor, combine avocado cubes, lemon or lime juice, basil, tarragon, garlic, and asorbic acid. Blend until smooth.

With the motor running, slowly pour in olive oil to make a thick, creamy dressing. If dressing is too thick to pour, add water, a few tablespoons at a time, to reach the desired consistency.

Pour into a bowl, season, to taste, with salt and pepper and cover. Refrigerate until chilled.
