Ingredients

2 servings
  • 2 cups tightly packed fresh Italian basil leaves with small stems
  • 3 cloves garlic (roughly chopped)
  • 3 tablespoons pine nuts
  • 4 tablespoons lemon juice
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • Water
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Freshly ground black pepper

Steps

  1. Add the basil, garlic, pine nuts, lemon juice, and Parmesan cheese to a food processor. Blend until well combined.
