How to Make Sour Cream Sauce

  1. In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1 cup sour cream, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  2. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until heated through and slightly thickened (about 5-7 minutes). Do not boil.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh chives (optional).
  4. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken further. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
