Instructions

1
Using a microplane, grate the garlic clove directly into the bowl of a food processor.
2
Zest the lemon into the food processor, then squeeze in 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice.
3
Add the white wine vinegar and let the mixture sit for 5 minutes to mellow the garlic flavor.
4
Add the mayonnaise, plain Greek yogurt, fresh basil leaves, and grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese to the food processor.
5
Season with kosher salt and black pepper.
6
Secure the lid and blend the mixture. While the processor is running, slowly stream in the extra virgin olive oil through the feed tube until the dressing is smooth and emulsified.
7
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
8
Pour the finished dressing into a bottle or airtight container for storage.
