Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
  • 1 tbsp adobo sauce
  • 1 tbsp white vinegar
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/4 tsp cumin
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp sugar

Method
 

  1. Add the mayonnaise, chipotle peppers, and adobo sauce to a blender and blend on high for 20 seconds until completely smooth.
  2. Add the white vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and sugar to the blender and whisk for 30 seconds until evenly combined.
  3. Taste, adjust salt or vinegar as needed, then pour into a jar or squeeze bottle and serve with a swirl of adobo sauce on top.

Notes

This sauce is ready to use right away but genuinely improves after sitting in the fridge for a few hours. If you are making it for a gathering, mix it the morning of and refrigerate until needed. One can of chipotles in adobo gives you enough for 3 to 4 batches, so freeze the leftover peppers in a small bag for next time.
