Ingredients

Quesadilla Sauce Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 Tbsp sour cream
  • 1 Tbsp canned jalapenos, finely chopped
  • 1 Tbsp canned jalapeno juice
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/4 tsp chili powder
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne powder

Instructions

  1. Chop Jalapenos: Finely chop the canned jalapenos until they are small enough to blend smoothly into the sauce, ensuring a consistent texture without large chunks.
  2. Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, add the mayonnaise, sour cream, finely chopped jalapenos, jalapeno juice, salt, paprika, garlic powder, ground cumin, chili powder, and cayenne powder.
  3. Mix Thoroughly: Stir all the ingredients together until the mixture becomes smooth and well combined so that the flavors are evenly distributed throughout the sauce.
  4. Store or Use: Use the sauce immediately as a dip or spread for quesadillas or other dishes. Alternatively, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4-5 days to maintain freshness and flavor.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of jalapeno and cayenne powder to control the spice level according to your taste.
  • Use fresh jalapenos if you prefer, but canned jalapenos provide a more authentic flavor and the necessary jalapeno juice for the sauce.
  • This sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days in a sealed container.
  • Perfect as a dip for quesadillas, tacos, or as a spread on burgers and sandwiches.
  • For a lighter version, substitute mayonnaise with low-fat mayo or Greek yogurt.
