Sour cream – makes up the base of the sauce, and adds a wonderful tang and creaminess. Mayonnaise – for richness and flavor, and adds to the creamy texture. Cilantro – this fresh herb brightens this sauce right up! Chipotles in adobo sauce – smoky and spicy, with a mild sweetness, and extra bold taste! Sea salt – to make all the flavors pop. Lime – for a more tangy citrus taste. Garlic – for a bit of added kick.
