I am a big fan of Chick-fil-A's® grilled market salad and their signature zesty apple cider vinaigrette! So, I developed a recipe to fill that craving. This dressing is simply amazing… the zing of the apple cider vinegar, hint of sweet pineapple and tangy lime juice, and warm heat of the freshly cracked black pepper is a sure winner!

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 teaspoon white sugar
  • 0.13 teaspoons xanthan gum
  • 10 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 0.25 cups apple cider vinegar
  • 0.25 cups honey
  • 2 tablespoons pineapple juice
  • 2 teaspoons lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon coarsely cracked black pepper
  • 0.25 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 0.25 teaspoons onion powder
  • 0.13 teaspoons cayenne pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Combine water, sugar, and xanthan gum in a small bowl; whisk to create a smooth gel with no lumps.

  2. 2

    Combine vegetable oil, vinegar, honey, pineapple juice, lime juice, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne in a medium bowl. Whisk in xanthan gum gel until dressing is smooth and all ingredients are incorporated. Transfer to a vinaigrette bottle and store in the refrigerator until ready to use.
