Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 4 garlic minced, cloves
  • 2 chipotle peppers diced (from canned chipotle peppers in adobo sauce)
  • 1 Tablespoon adobo sauce from can
  • 1 oz tomato sauce canned
  • 1 teaspoon oregano dried
  • ½ teaspoon chili powder
  • ½ teaspoon cumin ground
  • 1 cup vegetable broth low sodium, or chicken broth
  • ¼ teaspoon salt sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add oil and sauté garlic until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
  2. Add chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, tomato sauce, oregano, chili powder, cumin, broth, salt and pepper.
  3. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5-10 minutes. This will help thicken the sauce. Set aside until ready to use.

Notes

  • Storing: Let the sauce cool completely, then store it in an airtight container or jar in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. For longer storage, pour the cooled sauce into a freezer-safe container or silicone cube tray for easy portioning. Freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge or warm gently on the stovetop when ready to use.
