-
Combine the ingredients: In a small bowl or jar, combine the extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, lemon juice, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and pepper.

Whisk or shake: Whisk the ingredients together until fully combined. Alternatively, place all ingredients in a jar with a tight-fitting lid and shake vigorously.
-
Taste and adjust: Taste the dressing and adjust the seasonings if necessary. You can add more salt, pepper, or lemon juice to suit your preferences.
-
Refrigerate: For the best flavor, refrigerate the dressing for at least 30 minutes before using. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
