Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Low-sodium mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- 1 tablespoon Fresh lime juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Water (optional, to adjust consistency)
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add 1 cup of low-sodium mayonnaise as the base for the sauce.
Finely chop 1 tablespoon of chipotle peppers in adobo sauce and add it to the mayonnaise. For a milder spice, remove the seeds before chopping the peppers.
Squeeze the juice of half a lime to obtain approximately 1 tablespoon of fresh lime juice, and add it to the mixture.
Sprinkle 0.5 teaspoon of garlic powder, 0.5 teaspoon of smoked paprika, 0.25 teaspoon of ground cumin, and 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper into the bowl.
Using a whisk or a spoon, blend all the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Ensure that the chipotle peppers are evenly distributed throughout the mayo.
Taste the sauce and adjust the flavors if necessary, adding more lime juice for acidity or black pepper for spice.
If the mixture is too thick, add 1 tablespoon of water at a time to reach your desired consistency.
Transfer the chipotle mayo sauce into a serving bowl or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to blend the flavors together.
Serve chilled as a spread or dip, and enjoy your delicious low-sodium chipotle mayo sauce!
