Experience a guilt-free indulgence with this creamy, flavorful Low Carb BBQ Ranch Dressing, perfect for complementing your favorite salads, dips, or wraps. Crafted with a luscious blend of mayonnaise, sour cream, and tangy buttermilk, this dressing is elevated by the smoky depth of unsweetened BBQ sauce and a harmonious mix of garlic, onion powder, dill, and smoked paprika. Fresh chopped chives add a burst of color and freshness, while its low-carb profile makes it an ideal choice for keto or health-conscious diets. Ready in just 10 minutes and best served after chilling to let the bold flavors meld, this versatile dressing is the ultimate addition to any meal.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of mayonnaise and 0.5 cup of sour cream until smooth.
Add 0.25 cup of unsweetened BBQ sauce and 0.25 cup of buttermilk to the bowl. Stir well to integrate these liquids into the mayonnaise-sour cream mixture.
Mix in the dry ingredients: 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of onion powder, 1 teaspoon of dried dill, 0.5 teaspoon of smoked paprika, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper. Stir until these spices are evenly distributed throughout the dressing.
Fold in 1 tablespoon of freshly chopped chives, ensuring they are evenly spread throughout the mixture.
Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt and pepper if desired.
Transfer the dressing to a sealable jar or container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to let the flavors meld.
Use the dressing to top salads, serve as a dip for low-carb veggies, or as a zesty addition to sandwiches and wraps.
