1. Cook Garlic
Combine the minced garlic, extra-virgin olive oil, ground coriander, and coarse sea salt in a small skillet. Bring this mixture to a simmer over medium heat and cook until the garlic is fragrant and lightly golden, about 1.5 minutes.
2. Cool and Blend
Remove the skillet from the heat and let the oil mixture cool until comfortable to touch. Transfer the mixture to a blender. Add the fresh cilantro leaves, fresh lemon juice, half a jalapeño, and 0.25 cup of water. Blend until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt if necessary.
Select bright green, perky cilantro leaves and firm, glossy jalapeños for maximum flavor and zestiness.
Blend slowly while adding oil in a steady stream to create a sauce with silky texture that clings to food.
Adjust heat with acid or honey, and tartness with sugar, to achieve the perfect flavor profile.
Use fresh lime juice for brightness and balance, adjusting the quantity to suit your taste.
Remove seeds and ribs for a smoother drizzle, and handle with gloves to avoid irritation.
