Chipotle Honey Vinaigrette
Report
This Chipotle Honey Vinaigrette is a boldly flavored copycat recipe that's deliciously tangy and smoky-sweet. It's easy to make with just a few ingredients, perfect for salad bowls, burrito bowls, and so much more!

Ingredients
- 3½ tablespoons chipotle peppers in adobo sauce pureed from a can
- ¼ cup red wine vinegar
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons water
- ½ teaspoon oregano or substitute Italian or Greek oregano, dried, Mexican
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt Morton brand
- ½ teaspoon black pepper ground
- ½ cup vegetable oil
Instructions
- To create pureed chipotles: Using a blender or food processor, blitz the contents of a 7-ounce can of chipotle peppers in adobo sauce on high speed until smooth, about 30 seconds. Scrape the pureed chipotles into a small bowl.
- Add 3½ tablespoons of the pureed chipotles back to the food processor bowl (no need to wash it first). Add the red wine vinegar, honey, water, oregano, salt, and pepper. Blend on high speed until smooth, about 10-20 seconds. (See Notes below for suggestions of how to use the remaining chipotle puree.)
- With food processor on low speed, very slowly drizzle the the oil through the hole in the lid (place a towel over the top as you pour, to catch any splatters), until the dressing comes together and emulsifies.
- Pour the vinaigrette into an airtight container – I like to use a canning jar. Use immediately or chill for an hour or two to let the flavors blend. Give it a vigorous shake before using to combine.
Notes
- Suggestions for using the remaining chipotle puree: Store the remaining pureed chipotle mixture in an airtight container in the fridge and use it within 1 week in a bloody Mary, salsa, barbecue sauce, chicken tortilla soup, or chili. You can also use it in marinades, aiolis, and glazes – anything that can benefit from a deep, rich, smoky chili flavor. I also like to freeze individual portions (3½ tablespoons) so I can make this vinaigrette recipe even quicker in the future!
- To store: Store your homemade chipotle honey vinaigrette in an airtight container in the refrigerator - I like to use a canning jar. It will keep well for up to 1 week. To use, shake the (tightly sealed) dressing vigorously to combine. If the oil solidifies, just set the dressing out on the counter for 30 minutes before eating.
