Sauce ingredients
  • 1 cup mayonnaise Base of the sauce
  • 1/4 cup salsa Use mild or hot based on preference
  • 2 tablespoons hot sauce Adjust to taste for desired heat
  • 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning For a spicy kick
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika Adds smoky flavor
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder Enhances taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder Adds depth of flavor

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, salsa, hot sauce, Cajun seasoning, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  2. Stir until well blended.
  3. Adjust seasonings to taste.
  4. Serve immediately or refrigerate for an hour to allow flavors to meld.

Notes

Store the sauce in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 to 7 days. For freezing, use a freezer-safe jar, but it's not ideal due to mayonnaise breaking upon thawing.
