Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente. Once cooked, drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Toss with the olive oil and add to a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Make the dressing: In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, chipotle sauce, and seasonings. Once combined, add the lime juice and salt and pepper to taste. If desired, add more lime juice for a more acidic dressing, or more chipotle sauce or several dashes of your favorite hot sauce for a spicy dressing.

Step 3

Add the dressing to the pasta along with the rest of the salad ingredients. Stir to combine.

Step 4

Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
