Creamy and zesty, with a hint of spice, this easy Fish Taco Sauce recipe takes taco night to the next level! Perfect for drizzling on tacos or nachos, or adding flavor to burritos.
Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 10 days.
Notes
Let the sauce sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This isn’t required, but I can tell you from experience, the flavor of the sauce develops more and more as it sits in the refrigerator for the first 30 minutes to 2 hours.
I do not recommend freezing the sauce because it’s dairy-based and the texture won’t be the same after it’s defrosted.
This recipe makes just over 1 cup of fish taco sauce. If you’d like to double the recipe, simply click the 2X button above. The ingredient amounts will automatically update to make 2 cups of the sauce.
For even more lime flavor, zest the outside of the limes before you juice them into the sauce. The lime zest will add another tangy layer of flavor to the sauce.
