For a thinner sauce, add a tablespoon or two of water while blending. If you prefer a milder flavor, remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapeños. This sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Serve chilled alongside grilled chicken, fish tacos, or your favorite Peruvian dishes. Try adding a squeeze of fresh lime juice for an extra layer of brightness.
