It doesn't look like garlic lemon sauce. It's more solid, like a cold garlic butter & it's green like the color of Pesto but I'm 99% sure there's no Basil in it.

All i could find is a green mayonnaise called salsa mayonesa verde- it has parsley not basil. It
It's served with meat, fish, cold meats and veggies
Here is the recipe

3 cloves garlic
1 egg
250ml / 8 fl oz sunflower oil
Juice 1/2 lemon
Salt
1/2 bunch parsley leaves
Few drops green food colouring

Crush garlic with a little salt to a paste, transfer to a bowl add egg and lemon, whisk lightly then gradually whisk oil in a thin stream to create an emulsion. Pound the parsley separately in a mortar and pestle and add 1 tablespoon of the mayonnaise. Stir well then stir parsley mixture with the rest of mayo. Add few drops of food colouring. Season to taste with salt. Refrigerate until needed. Enjoy

Also can be made in blender or can adjust using good quality store bought mayonnaise.

Hi I have a Spanish recipe that's called green mayonnaise- its served with meats, fish, cold meats and fish. I hope it helps

3 cloves garlic
Salt
1 egg
1/2 lemon
250ml/8fl oz sunflower oil or other flavourless oil
1/2 bunch parsley leaves
Few drops green food colouring

First in a mortar and pestle grind the parsley leaves to form somewhat like a paste. Leave aside and make the mayonnaise

Crush garlic with a little salt. Add the egg and lemon juice and whisk lightly.

Then whisking constantly slowly add the oil in a thin and steady stream. This will cause an emulsion and it will become mayonnaise.

The grab the parsley and mix into it one spoon of the mayonnaise, the add this parsley mixture to the rest of the mayonnaise. Stir in a few drops of green food colouring. Taste and adjust salt. Refrigerate till needed.
