Ingredients

  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 15 ounce can fire roasted tomatoes with green chilis
  • 3 tablespoons ancho chili powder (or guajillo)
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon cumin ground
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • ½ - 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon Monk Fruit Sweetener or allulose
  • ¼ teaspoon oregano dried

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Heat a saucepan to medium and add in the butter. Once it has melted, add in the garlic and sauté for about 15 seconds, don’t let it brown or it will become bitter.
  2. Add in the chili powder, smoked paprika, cumin, ½ teaspoon of the salt and dried oregano. Allow the spices to toast for 20 seconds, then add in the tomato paste, tomatoes, chicken broth and sweetener.
  3. Stir until everything is well combined and simmer on low for 10 minutes or until slightly reduced and thickened. Taste it to see if it needs more salt, if so, add another ½ teaspoon.
  4. Using an immersion blender or a bullet blender, puree the sauce until smooth, and it’s ready to use.
  5. Store in an airtight jar in the fridge for 4-5 days or freeze.

Notes

  • Makes about 3 cups.
  • If you can’t find fire roasted tomatoes with green chilis, you can use any canned diced tomatoes and a tablespoon of green chilis.
  • This sauce has a little heat to it, so if you don’t like much heat, use tomatoes without the green chilis.
