Begin by preparing your ingredients. Slice the ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a blender. Peel the garlic and squeeze lime juice into a measuring cup—about 2 tablespoons should suffice.

In your blender, add the avocado, a handful of fresh cilantro (stems included), and the peeled garlic. Pour in approximately ¼ cup of olive oil. Add the measured lime juice and a pinch of sea salt for seasoning.

Secure the lid and blend on high speed for about 30 seconds until aiming for a creamy consistency. Scrape down the sides as necessary.

Taste the dressing after blending. If you prefer it zestier, add more lime juice or sea salt as needed and blend for a few more seconds.

Transfer the dressing to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
