Sometimes a dish is just missing something. Maybe it’s too dry or it’s slightly lacking in flavor, but it just needs a little something extra. That’s where this sauce comes in. Perfect as a dip or spread, this paleo cilantro-lime aioli has a hint of sweet and a bite of spicy. While it can be whipped up in mere minutes, it’s best if you make it at least 30 minutes ahead to let the flavors really blend together well.
