Tomatillo & Cilantro Lime Créma

Tomatillo & Cilantro Lime Créma

Sauces, dressings, and condiments have the power to add depth, flavor, and beauty to finished dishes, and this gorgeous créma is tops. I use this recipe for tacos, Chicken Enchilada Casserole, Quesa Birria, baked potatoes, salads, and so much more! Makes 4 cups or 1 quart.

The Ingredients

  • 6 tomatillos
  • ½ bunch of cilantro, stems included
  • 2 jalapeños, seeds and stem removed
  • 2 limes, juiced
  • 2 cloves fresh garlic
  • 1 cup sour cream (or plain Greek yogurt)
  • 1 cup Helman’s Mayonnaise
  • 6 tablespoons Hidden Valley Ranch Seasoning
  • 4 tablespoons Cotija Cheese

The Method

  1. In a food processor, add the tomatillos, cilantro, prepared jalapeños, lime juice, and garlic. Pulse until a desired consistency is reached. Add the sour cream, mayo, ranch seasoning, and cotija cheese. Pulse until combined. Use immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container.

Tips

  • Properly chilled, this dressing will last for up to 2 months in the fridge. Because of the sour cream element and the fresh tomatillos, this recipe does not freeze well.
