  • 3 to 4 chipotle peppers, adjust to taste 
  • 2 tablespoons chipotle pepper sauce
  • 1 to 2 garlic cloves
  • Juice 1/2 lime (about 1 tablespoon)
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt, adjust to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon coarse black pepper, adjust to taste
  • 1 teaspoon honey, optional

Instructions

  • In a small food processor or blender (may also use an immersion blender) add the sour cream, mayonnaise, chipotle peppers, chipotle sauce, garlic, lime juice, honey (optional), paprika, salt and black pepper)
  • Blend all ingredients together until a smooth sauce forms. Sauce is ready to be used immediately.
  • To store, transfer sauce into an airtight container like a mason jar and keep refrigerated. Sauce stored in the fridge will  remain fresh up to 1 week but will take on a thicker consistency. If a more thinner consistency is preferred, mix in a few splashes of water at a time until desired consistency is reached.
