Ingredient for Fish Taco Sauce
- The Base: Sour cream adds tang, while mayonnaise adds richness. You can substitute plain Greek yogurt for sour cream.
- Lime: Lime zest and fresh lime juice add the best flavor. If buying bottled lime juice, I find organic like this one tastes much closer to fresh and is worth the extra money.
- Herbs: I love cilantro and it’s perfect in this recipe. If you can’t eat cilantro, you can use parsley in this recipe, although it will change the flavor of the sauce.
- Seasoning: Spices like cumin, garlic powder, and smoked paprika add flavor. For heat, you can stir in cayenne pepper or finely diced jalapeno.
How to Make Fish Taco Sauce
- Zest and juice the lime.
- Combine all ingredients in a bowl (recipe below).
Drizzle on mahi-mahi tacos, shrimp tacos, or any other favorite taco recipe!
