Main Ingredients
- 1/2 cup low fat sour cream
- 1/2 cup low fat plain yogurt
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 – 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce (start with 1 and add more for extra heat; can substitute hot sauce but start with less)
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- Combine Ingredients: In a medium bowl, mix together the sour cream, low fat plain yogurt, lime juice, Sriracha sauce, sugar, and kosher salt until smooth and well incorporated.
- Taste and Adjust: Sample the sauce and adjust the flavors to your preference — you can add more Sriracha for heat, extra lime juice for acidity, or more sugar/salt until the balance suits your taste.
Notes
- Use low-fat dairy options to keep the sauce lighter without sacrificing creaminess.
- Sriracha sauce can be substituted with any hot sauce, but adjust the quantity carefully as heat levels vary.
- This sauce pairs excellently with grilled or fried fish tacos, and can also be used as a dip or dressing.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
