JALAPENO SOUR CREAM DIP

This jalapeno sour cream dip shows how simple ingredients taste incredibly delicious when combined.

If you rely on store-bought versions of dips, this sour cream dip with jalapeno is an effortless recipe to jumpstart to make your own.

These recipes, which are made with just a few pantry staple ingredients and take under five minutes, include Cajun aioli sauce and spicy peanut butter.

This delicious Jalapeno sour cream dip is ready under 5 minutes effortlessly. Its tastes creamy and mildly spicy.

About This Recipe

  • The secret behind every successful recipe is the easy-to-find ingredients. A delicious dish is all about the list of ingredients and the proportions of using it with a simplified process.
  • Simple recipes (like this curry aioli sauce or blackened Mahi Mahi) are always sure to hit. They are prevalent among households and also on the Internet. 
  • Last week, my son got a dip bottle from Walmart for our recent party. Our family loved it very much.
  • Today, my family requested that I make them a delicious dip similar to the store-bought one but with a hint of heat.  
  • Not to mention, our jalapeno sour cream dip version was more fabulous than the readymade ones.

Why You'll Love This Jalapeño Sour Cream Dip Recipe?

  • Highly customizable. Increase or decrease the heat level to your preference. Add more herbs for extra flavors. Adjust the consistency to suit your requirements.
  • Economical. This recipe is cost-effective, as most of the ingredients you may already have in your kitchen.
  • It's effortless. Prepare all the ingredients and pulse. That's it—a delectable dish is prepared in a flash of seconds. 
  • It's an excellent side dish. Serve with fresh-cut vegetables, pepper, chips, or tortillas. 

The Ingredients

  • Sour cream. I have used regular sour cream, but you may also use light or vegan sour cream.
  • Onion and garlic powder are flavor enhancers, and I highly advise adding them in powder form, as this also thickens the jalapeno sour cream dip.
  • Jalapeño pepper. I have used fresh peppers. You swap with pickled jalapeno if the fresh ones are not available.
  • Mayonnaise. Mayonnaise adds an excellent texture to the dip. Store-bought or homemade of them are great.
  • Cilantro. Optionally, you may add to brighten the flavors and substitute with the dill leaves or chives. 

How To Make Jalapeno Sour Cream Dip?

Add sour cream, onion powder, garlic powder, and mayonnaise in the blender. Pulse for a minute until all the ingredients combine and turn smooth in texture.

Serve with fresh-cut vegetables or sliced peppers.

How To Serve?

  • Chips and nachos: Crispy chips taste excellent with this creamy texture jalapeño sour cream dip.
  • As Salad dressing: The leftovers work excellently as a quick salad dressing for a spiced salad like Fiesta salad or spicy kale salad.
  • As a base dip: Have the ingredients in this jalapeno sour cream dip as primary ingredients. Discover more flavors by adding minced garlic and bacon to make the dipping sauce more interesting, like this honey Sriracha sauce.
  • Sidekick for meat: This creamy sauce is perfect for slathering over barbecued or grilled meat.
  • As topping: Drizzled over your tacos are the burgers to boost their deliciousness.
