    • Reviews

  • “This sauce has such a fresh taste!I used it on salmon on the bbq adding the sauce toward the end of cooking.”

  • “I won’t rate this, since maybe I did something wrong, given all of the good reviews it’s gotten. Maybe I used too much or not enough cilantro.Perhaps the recipe should give a more specific amount, because I followed the recipe exactly as written with no changes whatsoever.Honestly, I don’t know why this didn’t work, but it was the worst thing I have ever made with cilantro.I was sad that I wasted some of my home grown cilantro on this recipe.”

  • “Very good with pork. “

  • “Nice recipe! A little too thin for me so I added a small Hass Avocado and it was perfect!!”

  • “I will cut back on the lime next time,but it was really simple and tasty.Thanks.”

  • “I love this sauce and can’t seem to get enough. We ate this with Recipe #359384 and rice. I made the sauce the night before when I put the meat in the crockpot. One lime and 1/2 a jalapeno was enough for us. And I did end up adding a little additional cream to taste the next day before serving.”

  • “Very good recipe. I modified it somewhat to use as a sauce for my fish tacos. After mixing everything, I bring it to taste with a little sugar. For the fish tacos, just take a flour taco shell add some deep fried fish, shredded lettuce, diced onion and this sauce.”

  • “wonderful flavor. i used lemons instead of limes. it is a little too thin. Next time I will stir(not blend) some more sour cream. We are having this with cedar salmon!”

  • “I’ve already given this one 5 star rating, but wanted to update. Still just the best! Make at least 6-24 hours ahead of time for best flavor. This time, I was going for a smoother feel, so stripped the cilantro leaves off the stem before adding to the blender. I also de-seed the jalapeno so it’s not too hot. A wonderful sauce- salad dressing for just about anything!”

  • “I made & refrigerated this for several hours before using it as a dip for boiled shrimp.Al I have to say is WOW!!”

  • “I originally reviewed this recipe and gave it only 4 stars, but….The next day I tried some of this sauce with my steak and it was very good, the flavor had intensified over night. The day I made it to be honest, I couldnt really taste the cilantro, I think the sauce should be made in advance to get the benefit of all the flavors. Thanks for this recipe.”

  • “This is an excellent sauce..we put this over chicken and it was just great.”
