Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup, packed fresh cilantro leaves
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 0.5 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 0.25 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 cloves, minced garlic
- 0.5 medium, seeded and chopped jalapeño pepper
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Wash the cilantro leaves thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or a salad spinner.
In a blender or food processor, combine the cilantro, sour cream, mayonnaise, lime juice, olive oil, minced garlic, chopped jalapeño, apple cider vinegar, sea salt, and black pepper.
Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and creamy. You may need to stop occasionally and scrape down the sides to ensure all ingredients are fully incorporated.
Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more lime juice for tanginess or salt and pepper to taste.
Transfer the dressing to a jar or container with a tight-fitting lid. Let it sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve drizzled over salads, grilled meats, or use as a dip for vegetables. Make sure to give it a good shake or stir before serving.
