Peruvian Aji-Style Sauce image

I got this recipe from a restaurant in California 10 years ago. It's been a staple in my refrigerator ever since. It's excellent with rotisserie chicken. You can lower the calories if you stream in olive oil in replace of the mayo.

I made this sauce without the chicken and it was still very flavorful. I served it over rice and beans and it was a delicious and satisfying meal.

I made this sauce with low-fat yogurt instead of sour cream and it was still very creamy and delicious. I also used whole wheat tortillas instead of white tortillas and it was a healthier and just as tasty version of the traditional dish.

This sauce was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I was able to tone it down by adding some sour cream. The flavors were still very good and it went well with my chicken.
