Servings 2.5 cups

Equipment

  • skillet
  • blender or small food processor
  • funnel (optional)

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable/olive/avocado oil
  • 4 ounces serrano peppers (about 6), stems removed
  • 4-6 garlic cloves
  • 1 cup mayo
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Heat skillet to medium/medium-high. Add oil to your skillet and then the serrano peppers. Cook for 8-10 minutes, turning frequently so all sides of the chile peppers have blistered (be careful of popping oil), then add the garlic. Cook for a minute, turn the garlic cloves over and cook for 1 more minute.
  • Add the blistered serranos (I don't remove the skins), garlic, and oil from the pan to a blender or small food processor along with the mayo, plain Greek yogurt, white vinegar, salt & pepper. Blend until smooth and there are are no chunks.
  • Transfer the sauce to a bowl for serving or containers for storing in the fridge and enjoy!

Notes

  • Feel free to replace the plain Greek yogurt with sour cream or regular, non-Greek yogurt.
  • Store the sauce in an air-tight container like a squeeze bottle or Mason jar and use within a week.
