Warm Bacon Vinaigrette
Skip the bottled stuff and whip up a batch of this indulgent bacon vinaigrette. Minced shallots, garlic, brown sugar, orange juice, balsamic vinegar, and coarse grained mustard give it a delightfully sweet-and-tangy flavor.
How to Make It
Step 1
Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat 8 to 10 minutes or until crisp; remove bacon, and drain on paper towels, reserving 2 Tbsp. drippings in skillet. Crumble bacon, and reserve for another use.
Step 2
Cook shallots and garlic in hot drippings over medium heat, stirring occasionally, 3 minutes or until tender. Add brown sugar, and cook, stirring constantly, 1 minute or until sugar is dissolved.
Step 3
Process garlic mixture, orange juice, and next 4 ingredients in a blender until combined.
ShannonP's Review
Delicious! I served this on a spinach salad with crumbled bacon and sliced hard-boiled egg. The flavor is wonderful.
Pretty sweet, might work for some as is.
