"After some work, we came up with what we feel is pretty close to the addictive jalapeno dip you get as a "pre-appetizer" at Chuy's in Houston, Texas."

Very nice dip. -
Very close to the dip served at Chuy's. Easy to make. It is better after it is chilled overnight.

Very easy to make and nicely flavored. I did reduce the ranch dressing and up the sour cream which made it a bit thicker. I did completely deseed the jalapenos. We used this as a dip and also on fajitas. Thank you Kerrie for sharing your recipe! -
Great dip recipe! Just the right amount of spice and bite. Goes well with both chips and veggies. Thanks for posting.
