Creamy Jalapeno Dip Chuy S Copycat Recipe
Ingredients:
– 4 fresh jalapenos, stemmed and seeded
– 1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves
– 1/2 cup mayonnaise
– 1/2 cup sour cream
– 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon cumin
– 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
– Juice of 1 lime
Instructions:
1. Start by preparing the jalapenos – you can choose to leave some seeds for extra heat or remove them entirely for a milder version. Roughly chop the jalapenos and cilantro leaves and add them to a food processor.
2. Pulse the jalapenos and cilantro until finely chopped. You want them to be well incorporated but still with a bit of texture.
3. In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped jalapenos and cilantro with mayonnaise, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, cumin, dried oregano, and lime juice.
4. Mix all the ingredients together until well combined. The lime juice adds a zesty freshness that complements the spiciness of the jalapenos perfectly.
5. Taste the dip and adjust the seasoning if needed. You can add more salt or lime juice according to your preference.
6. Transfer the creamy jalapeno dip to a serving bowl and cover it with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to let the flavors meld together and intensify.
7. When you’re ready to serve, garnish the dip with a few fresh cilantro leaves for a pop of color and freshness.
This creamy jalapeno dip pairs beautifully with tortilla chips, fresh veggies, or even as a zesty spread for sandwiches and wraps. It’s versatile and addictive, so be prepared for it to disappear quickly at any gathering!
