This creamy chipotle sauce is the perfect addition to taco night. It has just the right amount of kick and pairs perfectly with burrito bowls, roasted vegetables, or even just as a dip for chips.

I love how easy this is to customize to your personal heat preference. You can start with one pepper and add more until the flavor is exactly how you like it.

Ingredients

1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 to 3 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

4Instructions

1
Place the sour cream, mayonnaise, chipotle peppers, garlic powder, salt, and pepper into a blender or food processor.

Taste the sauce and add an extra pepper if you want a stronger spice level.

Serve immediately or store it in the refrigerator until you are ready to use it.

Tips

Store this sauce in an airtight jar in the refrigerator for up to one week. It tastes even better after an hour in the fridge because the flavors have more time to meld together.
