Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Fat-free plain Greek yogurt
- 2 large peppers Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- 1 tablespoon Adobo sauce (from chipotle can)
- 1 cup Fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
- 1 large clove Garlic clove
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Water (optional, for thinning)
Instructions
Gather all the ingredients and ensure the chipotle peppers are deseeded if you prefer a milder flavor.
In a blender or food processor, combine the fat-free plain Greek yogurt, chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, fresh cilantro, lime juice, garlic clove, salt, and ground black pepper.
Blend the ingredients on high speed until smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides of the blender as needed to ensure everything is evenly mixed.
Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning if necessary. Add more lime juice for tanginess, or more chipotle peppers for additional heat.
If the sauce is too thick, add 1-2 tablespoons of water and blend again until you reach your desired consistency.
Transfer the dressing to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
Serve the sauce as a dressing for salads, a drizzle over tacos or bowls, or as a dipping sauce for veggies. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
