Ingredients

  • Chipotle Peppers in Adobo Sauce: 2 peppers – smoky, spicy star of the sauce
  • Adobo Sauce: 1 tablespoon – adds depth and spice
  • Sour Cream or Greek Yogurt: 1 cup – creates the creamy, tangy base
  • Mayonnaise: 1/4 cup – adds richness and silkiness
  • Garlic Powder: 1/2 teaspoon – adds savory depth
  • Onion Powder: 1/2 teaspoon – rounds out the flavor profile
  • Fresh Lime Juice: 1 tablespoon – balances richness with zesty brightness
  • Salt: 1/2 teaspoon – enhances all the flavors

  3. Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy.
  4. Assemble the Dish: Taste and adjust seasoning — add more chipotle for heat, more lime for brightness, or a touch more honey for balance.
  5. Cook to Perfection: No cooking required, but a quick 10-minute rest in the fridge allows flavors to meld.
