Chipotle Mayo Recipe
Description
This Chipotle Mayo recipe mixes mayonnaise with lime juice, maple syrup, pureed chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, liquid smoke, garlic, Dijon mustard, and salt to create a smoky and mildly spicy condiment. The use of pureed chipotle peppers and liquid smoke builds a deep smoky flavor, balanced by the tanginess of lime juice and subtle sweetness from maple syrup.
The garlic and Dijon mustard add sharpness and complexity, while salt enhances all the flavors. This sauce can be made quickly by combining all ingredients and stirring well. It can be used immediately or refrigerated to allow flavors to meld further.
It pairs well as a topping for sandwiches, burgers, tacos, or as a dip for fries or vegetables. The recipe keeps well stored in the refrigerator for up to ten days.
Ingredients
- ¾ cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 ½ teaspoons chipotle pepper in adobo sauce see notes, pureed
- 12 drops liquid smoke see notes
- 1 large garlic clove
- 1 ½ teaspoons Dijon mustard
- ½ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Add all of the ingredients to a small mixing bowl and mix well.
- Either serve it right away or store it for up to 10 days.
Notes
- Puree chipotle peppers in adobo sauce from a can for authentic smoky heat; store leftovers in a clean jar refrigerated for long-term use.
- Liquid smoke is a pantry staple that adds a smoky flavor and has a long shelf life; find it near barbecue sauces or online.
- Store the chipotle mayo in the refrigerator and use within ten days for best flavor and freshness.
