Easy Honey Chipotle Sauce
This Easy Honey Chipotle Sauce blends chipotle peppers in adobo with ketchup, honey, soy sauce, and a touch of water to create a smooth, smoky sauce. Simmering it briefly deepens its flavors. The result is a spicy-sweet condiment suitable for adding bold flavor to grilled meats, tacos, or dipping sauces.

Ingredients
- 1 .5 ounce can chipotle peppers en adobo
- 1 tablespoon water
- ¼ cup ketchup
- ¼ cup honey + 1 tablespoon
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
Instructions
- Add the entire can of chipotle en adobo peppers, ketchup, honey, and soy sauce to a blender. I like to add the water to the chipotle en adobo can and do a quick swish with the water, then add to the blender along with the rest of the ingredients.
- Blend for 30 seconds; the resulting sauce should be relatively smooth.
- Add the sauce to a small saucepan and turn to medium heat. Cook for 3 minutes over a gentle simmer, stirring constantly.
- Remove from heat and let cool. Makes 1 ¼ cup sauce.

Notes
- If the sauce initially tastes too spicy, let it sit refrigerated for 24 hours to mellow the heat.
- Blend all ingredients until smooth before simmering gently to develop flavors.
- Store cooled sauce in the refrigerator and stir before using to recombine.
