Avocado Lime Ranch

This is my version of the Chick-fil-A avocado lime ranch – it’s got more lime than their version and works great as a salad dressing or dip for chicken.

Ingredients

Ingredients (~3 cups)

  • 3 ripe Haas avocados
  • 3/4 cup mayo like Duke’s
  • 1/3 cup distilled white vinegar
  • 1/3 cup buttermilk
  • 1/3 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 1 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp dried dill
  • 3/4 tsp sugar omit for keto
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1-2 Tbsp water to thin

Instructions

  • Add avocados, mayo, vinegar, buttermilk, lime juice, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, dill, sugar, salt, and pepper to a food processor and blend until smooth, scraping sides as needed.
  • With the processor running, slowly drizzle in olive oil over 30 seconds until thick and creamy.
  • Add 1 tablespoon water and blend, then add more water as needed until the dressing coats a spoon but still drips off.
  • Taste and adjust seasonings with more lime juice for brightness, salt for depth, or vinegar and buttermilk for tang.
  • Transfer to a mason jar and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.

Notes

Dressing keeps up to 5 days but is best within 3 days.
