Step 1
Mix the base
In a bowl, combine sour cream, mayonnaise, and ranch seasoning until smooth and creamy.
Step 2
Add smoky heat
Stir in chopped chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, lime juice, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Step 3
Chill and serve
Mix well, adjust seasoning to taste, then refrigerate for at least 20–30 minutes before serving.
Control the heat
Use less chipotle for a mild dip or add extra adobo sauce for deeper smoky spice.
Flavor boost
Letting the dip chill helps the smoky chipotle flavor blend into the ranch base.
Extra creamy version
Add a few tablespoons of cream cheese for a thicker, richer dip.
Lighter version
Swap mayo for Greek yogurt to reduce calories while keeping creaminess.
Refrigerator
