Ingredients
- 1 cup sour cream, regular or light
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 small garlic clove, or ½ teaspoon garlic of powder
- ¼ teaspoon of salt
- ¼ teaspoon of black pepper
- ½ cup fresh chopped cilantro, about ½ bunch
Instructions
Make the sauce:
- Place all ingredients in a food processor or blender. Blend until it's mostly smooth. I like to leave a few cilantro specks in my sauce.
Storage:
- Transfer the cilantro lime sauce to a jar or dressing bottle, then refrigerate it until you're ready to serve it over your favorite tacos, salads, and more.
- This sauce keeps in the fridge for up to 5 days. Stir or shake before using.
Notes
- Want to make it spicy? Add ¼ to ½ jalapeño and blend with the other ingredients.
- Adjusting the thickness: for a thinner sauce, or to reach a dressing-like consistency, add a bit more (1 tablespoon) lime juice.
