Ingredients
Method
- In a blender or food processor, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, pickled jalapeños, and taco seasoning.
- Blend on high speed for 30-60 seconds, or until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
- Scrape down the sides of the blender with a spatula to ensure all ingredients are incorporated.
- Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if desired, adding more jalapeños for extra heat or a pinch of salt.
- Transfer the sauce to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
- Serve chilled with your favorite quesadillas, tacos, or as a dipping sauce for Tex-Mex dishes.
Notes
- For a smoother sauce, ensure your pickled jalapeños are finely chopped before blending, or use a high-speed blender.
- Adjust the amount of taco seasoning to control the spice and flavor intensity; start with less and add more to taste.
- If the sauce is too thick, add a teaspoon of water or pickle juice from the jalapeños to reach your desired consistency. I've found that sometimes the sour cream consistency varies, so a little liquid can help. Nutrition information is an estimate, calculated automatically.
