Cilantro-Lime-Ginger Sauce

I seem to be on an Asian kick the last few days. I made this sauce from a bunch of cilantro that I bought at the farmers market. We used some of it tonight as a rub on grilled steak, where it was quite tasty, though I think it would probably be better as a condiment than a rub. Try it over grilled chicken or fish, or tossed with vegetables over rice.

1 medium bunch cilantro (about 2 1/2 - 3 cups)
1 Tbsp lime juice
2 Tbsp canola oil (or more to taste, for a thinner sauce)
1 tsp salt
1 Tbsp grated fresh ginger
2 cloves garlic, minced

Combine all ingredients in food processor and process until smooth.

Makes about 3/4 cup.
