Jalapeno Lime Tartar Sauce

By á-30

This is a delicious sauce for fried fish and seafood. We were inspired to purchase pickled jalapenos from Sara Moulton. These are available right near the pickles in the grocery store. We find our first use for them tonight in a variation on a traditional tartar sauce.

Ingredients

• Ingredients
• 1 cup light mayonnaise (Hellmann's)
• 1 tablespoon pickled slices jalapeno
• 1 tablespoon red onion
• 1 large lime
• 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro

Preparation

Step 1

We combine the mayo, jalapeno, and red onion in a medium bowl. We rinse our lime and cut it in half. We squeeze a lime half into a measuring cup, yielding 1 tablespoon. We add this to the bowl with the cilantro and refrigerate the sauce covered until we are ready to serve. We slice the remaining lime half for garnish with the meal.
