3/4 cup mayonnaise
3/4 cup sour cream
1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder start with 3/4 teaspoon if you aren't a fan of too much heat
1 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried dill weed
1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon dried chives
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/16 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 - 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt adjust to taste
1/2 teaspoon finely cracked pepper adjust to taste
freshly squeezed lemon juice lime works too, approximately 1-3 teaspoons, adjust to taste

Whisk together the mayonnaise and sour cream until smooth. Add the spices and whisk to combine thoroughly. Add the lemon juice, taste and adjust as needed. Chill until ready to serve. The heat will increase a little bit overnight, so keep that in mind if you are making this ahead of time. Enjoy!
