  1. This sauce is absolutely fantastic on fish tacos! I wasn't sure what kind of chilies to use, so roasted some serranos and jalapenos. The only change I will make next time is to add more spicy chilies (maybe a little minced habanero?), only because I would like the extra kick. DS put this on his chicken fahitas and loved it too!
     
  2. Niiiiiiice! I agree that homemade ranch would make it better but it's amazing even with the bottle. LOVE chuy's creamy sauce! Thanks so much for the recipe.
     
  3. We LOVE this sauce. I can't believe I haven't left a review yet. I've made it many times.
     
  4. We had this with chicken tacos tonight. I buy a rotisserie chicken and freshly made corn tortillias with the fixings. This sauce adds a nice lime flavor with a nice kick. The only thing I would change would be to use a home made ranch. I don't personally like bottled ranch as they seem to have a sweet taste.
