Cuisine: American
Serves: 1 cup
Ingredients
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1 tablespoon chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, minced
- 1 tablespoon ranch seasoning mix
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Gather all the ingredients: 1 cup mayonnaise, 1/2 cup buttermilk, 1 tablespoon minced chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, 1 tablespoon ranch seasoning mix, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, and salt and pepper to taste.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise and buttermilk. Whisk them together until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
- Add the minced chipotle peppers in adobo sauce to the bowl. This will give the dressing a smoky flavor and a bit of heat.
- Next, sprinkle in the ranch seasoning mix, garlic powder, and onion powder. These ingredients will enhance the overall flavor of the dressing.
- Using a whisk or a fork, mix all the ingredients thoroughly until they are fully combined and the dressing has a uniform consistency.
- Once mixed, taste the dressing and season with salt and pepper to your liking. Start with a small pinch of salt and a few cracks of pepper, then adjust as needed.
- If the dressing is too thick for your preference, you can thin it out by adding a little more buttermilk, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach the desired consistency.
- Transfer the dressing to an airtight container or a jar with a lid. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. However, it can be used immediately if desired.
- Serve the Chipotle Ranch Dressing as a dip for vegetables, a sauce for salads, or a topping for grilled meats. Enjoy!
Tips
- • For the best flavor, use high-quality mayonnaise and fresh buttermilk • Adjust the amount of chipotle peppers based on your heat tolerance • If you want a smoother consistency, blend the ingredients in a food processor • The dressing tastes even better after chilling for a few hours, allowing flavors to fully develop • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5-7 days • For a lighter version, you can substitute Greek yogurt for part of the mayonnaise • Use fresh garlic and onion powders for the most robust flavor • Taste and adjust seasonings gradually to achieve your perfect balance
