This creamy aioli blends mayonnaise with fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, and chopped capers for a punchy, tangy condiment. It comes together in minutes without cooking, making it a quick upgrade for seafood, roasted vegetables, or crusty bread. Chilling briefly lets the flavors meld before serving.
