Ingredients
- 1 cup Mexican crema or sour cream (see note)
- 2 tablespoons lime juice from 1 lime
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- 1 garlic clove finely minced
- ¼ teaspoon salt to taste
Instructions
- Whisk together ingredients in a medium-sized bowl until well combined.
- Store in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Enjoy!
Notes
- Mexican Crema: If you can’t find Mexican crema, sour cream or Greek yogurt work well. Just note that Greek yogurt is thicker and tangier, so you may need to add a splash of water or milk to thin it out.
- Zest: Use a microplane to get finer pieces of zest so it will easily mix into the sauce.
- Limes: Make sure you roll the lime before juicing to extract the most juice.
- Best Flavor: Make this sauce 24 hours in advance for the best flavor. You will need to give it a good stir as the crema might separate.
- To Store: Keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Do not freeze as the sauce will separate upon thawing.
