There’s something about a really good garlic aioli that instantly makes any meal feel elevated.
It’s one of those little extras that turns a simple sandwich into something crave-worthy… fries into something you can’t stop dipping… and roasted veggies into something even picky eaters go back for seconds of.
The best part? You don’t need anything complicated to make it.
Traditionally, aioli is made from just garlic and olive oil, slowly emulsified into a creamy sauce—but these days, most home kitchens (and honestly, most restaurants too) use a mayonnaise base to make it quicker and more approachable without sacrificing flavor.
That’s exactly what we’re doing here—keeping it simple, but taking the flavor to the next level with Abingdon Olive Oil Company.
Instead of raw garlic, we’re using AOOC Garlic Olive Oil, which gives you that rich, smooth garlic flavor without being overpowering. Then we add just a touch of AOOC Eureka Green Lemon Olive Oil to brighten everything up and balance it out.
The result is creamy, garlicky, slightly citrusy perfection.
This is the kind of recipe you’ll find yourself making over and over again because it works with just about everything. Spread it on burgers, drizzle it over steak, serve it alongside roasted potatoes, or use it as a dip for chicken tenders or veggies.
And if you really want to see it shine… try it on our Easy Crockpot Steak Sandwiches. The tender, shredded steak paired with this creamy garlic aioli is one of those combinations that just works every single time—rich, savory, and completely satisfying. It’s the kind of upgrade that turns a simple sandwich into something you’ll be craving again before you’ve even finished your plate.
And if you’re anything like us… you might just find yourself sneaking a spoonful straight from the bowl.
Simple ingredients. Big flavor. Endless uses.
