Pistachio Citrus Dressing

I had a salad like this, at Grand Luxe, and decided it was a MUST for our Thanksgiving meal!
I served it with pistachio nuts, chunked beets, romaine lettuce, chunked pears, and goat cheese.

Pistachio Citrus Dressing
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1 shallot, peeled and minced
1 teaspoon minced fresh thyme leaves
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon orange zest
1/3 cup pistachio oil
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper.
Directions:
In a medium saucepan, bring orange juice to a boil. Lower to a simmer and reduce until only 1/3 cup remains. Cool to room temperature. In a medium bowl, combine orange juice, shallot, thyme, vinegar and orange zest. Slowly whisk in both oils until thick and emulsified. Season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until needed.
