Notes
Make it ahead - It needs to marinate for at least 2 hours, making this a great make ahead option.
It makes a lot, so it’s great to feed a crowd!
Pull out of the fridge 10 minutes before eating. This will help keep the oil from clumping when serving.
Don't forget to stir- Be sure to give this a good stir before serving as the marinade tends to settle to the bottom of the bowl.
Taste as you go- always season to your taste, the seasonings in this recipe are just recommendations.
Ingredients to prep ahead- while this entire recipe is best made ahead, if you prefer to prep ingredients the day before, you can easily chop all the veggies a day in advance.
Storage and leftovers- This will last up to 5 days covered in the refrigerator.
