Preserved Lemon Gremolata

Amanda Haas

Typically made with lemon zest, garlic, parsley, and anchovies, this vegan version calls on preserved lemon and salty almonds for depth. The preserved lemon rounds out the clean herbs and bright acid in a way that is downright magical. Spoon this over a baked sweet potato, serve it over grilled shrimp, chicken, or steak; or smother your favorite tacos in it. Oh- it's also delicious over eggs!
