Chipotle Smoked Red Pepper Sauce Recipe
This sauce is adapted from one in Bobby Flay's Mesa Grill cookbook. The honey and chipotle puree make for a sweet/hot flavor that is very good. I used more oil than originally called for, increased the amount of onion and added mayonnaise to thicken the sauce slightly. It refrigerates well and can be used as a condiment on most anything. I used it as a garnish for a smoked pork tenderloin.
Ingredients
- 2 ea red bell peppers, roasted peeled, seeded and chopped
- 1/3 red onion , coarsely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, roasted
- 1/8 cup red wine vinegar
- 2 tsp honey
- 1 1/2 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 1/2 tsp chipotle chile puree (or to taste)
- salt/pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup canola oil
- 2 Tbs mayonnaise
Directions
- Combine the red pepper, onion, garlic vinegar, honey mustard and chipotle puree in a blender.
- Season with salt and pepper then blend until smooth.
- With the motor running slowly add the oil and blend until emulsified.
- Remove from blender and whisk in mayonnaise to thicken slightly.
