I think it looks great for a marinade or a light finishing sauce. For those who are looking at the comments and not the actual nutrition, it is 68.1 cal per tablespoon, not 98. Oil itself with no additions is about 98. Stop freaking out about the calories please. If it is too much for you skip it. - 8/18/12

I agree; very pricey calorie-wise for someone like me who needs to lose weight - not gain it. Aout 100 cals. for about 1 Tbsp is too much for me. Maybe Chef Meg could also state what the minimum amount of oil would be to make this sauce still viable; e.g., 2 T oil and 10 T water, vs. 3/4 cups oil. - 10/7/10

Mouth watering! I'll need to try this. My apologies beforehand, but I will definitely tweak this to my own taste - oil (not much less - 3 parts oil to 1 part acid), and less of the red pepper flakes (probably just a very wee sprinkle of cayenne).
Now to decide what to marinade :)
Ta for the idea! - 8/19/12
