This simple sauce of garlic caramelized in olive oil with lots of fresh citrus goes well with a wide range of ingredients. We use it as a marinade and as a glaze to brush on vegetables, meat, or fish as they cook.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup [120 ml] extra-virgin olive oil
  • 30 garlic cloves, peeled

Method

Preheat the oven to 350°F [180°C].

In a small cast-iron or other type of ovenproof pan, combine the olive oil and garlic, making sure that the garlic is completely submerged. Place in the oven and cook<
