Here's a sauce that combines crisp cilantro with the smooth texture of avocado and the piquant touch of jalapeno. Perfect for drizzling over fish tacos or using as a versatile dip or dressing.

1 1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves
6 jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped
12 ounces mayonnaise
12 ounces sour cream
3 avocados, pits and skin removed
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
Combine the cilantro and jalapeno in a food processor. Process until coarsely chopped. Add the mayonnaise, sour cream, avocados, and lime juice. Process until desired consistency.
Use the sauce immediately or store in a covered container in the refrigerator until ready to use. Sauce will keep for up to 2 days.
Use on fish tacos or with other fish or seafood. Also makes a good dressing or salads or as a dip.

I love this sauce so much that I make it frequently as a dip for tortilla chips...adjust heat with peppers to your liking. I do add some crushed garlic for the dip. It is super without it though!!
