Homemade Southwest Ranch – Simply Scratch

A simple Homemade Southwest Ranch that’s perfect as a dressing or dip! Eight ingredients like; mayonnaise, sriracha, adobo, ranch and southwest seasoning is all you need to make this incredibly flavorful dressing. Yields 1-1/2 cups or 12 (2 tablespoon) servings.

I fell in love with southwest ranch at a bdubs.

In my opinion, Buffalo Wild Wings has the best southwestern ranch. It’s usually served with fried pickles or onion rings, although Malloree asks for a side to dip her wings in. It’s so good! And for years I’ve been trying to recreate it at home. It’s creamy, with cool herbaceousness from the ranch and a subtle spicy kick from the southwest seasoning and sriracha.

It’s really so so good!

To Make This Homemade Southwest Ranch You Will Need:

• mayonnaise – Adds rich flavor and creaminess.
• sriracha – Adds delicious subtle heat.
• ketchup – Use homemade or store-bought, regular or sugar free.
• ranch seasoning mix – Feel free to use my homemade recipe or store-bought.
• southwest seasoning – Gives the dressing that southwest flavor.
• adobo seasoning – Homemade or store-bought works great. My adobo seasoning recipe is in my cookbook.
• chili powder – Lends additional Tex-Mex flavor.
• milk – Used for thinning the dressing. Use any milk of choice.

In a medium bowl, measure and add 3/4 cup mayonnaise, 2 teaspoons sriracha, 1 teaspoon ketchup, 2 tablespoon ranch seasoning, 1 tablespoon southwest seasoning, 1 tablespoon adobo seasoning and 1 teaspoon chili powder.

Pour in 1/2 cup milk. And stir until combined.

Cover and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours before using. This will help develop the flavors and thicken the dressing/dip. If you want it thinner, add more milk after it’s chilled.
