Copycat Carrabba's Olive Oil Dipping Sauce

Well I've been on a roll lately about creating my own Seasoning Blends, and who doesn't love Carrabba's olive oil Dipping sauce?   

We will just call this herb dip + bread + wine dinner and check this day off as done, yes? Yes.

Well maybe add a appetizer to that, but seriously I could make a meal on the Crusty bread dipped into a good olive oil dip, add a glass of Vino and dinner is done!

So give this a try and let me know what you think. 

2 cloves garlic, very very finely minced

1 tablespoon fresh oregano, very finely minced

1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, very finely minced

1 tablespoon fresh parsley, very finely minced

½ tablespoon fresh basil, very finely minced

1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

½ teaspoon kosher salt

¼ teaspoon coarse ground black pepper

¼ cup olive oil for serving make sure it's a good quality olive oil, Carrabba's uses a Spanish olive oil which gives the dip a light lemony note.

Mix all ingredients in a small bowl except for the olive oil. 

Put about a Tablespoon of the mixture on a plate and pour the oil on top, Grab a crusty Italian bread a glass of wine and Mangia!

Enjoy!

P.S. Yes you could use dried herbs but it wont be the same as Carrabba's
