Ingredients
- 1 ounce roasted red peppers drained and lightly rinsed, jarred
- ½ cup olive oil
- 2-4 teaspoons garlic minced
- ¾ teaspoon salt or to taste
- lemon juice of 1
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes crushed
- ⅔ cup garbanzo beans or almonds
- ½ teaspoon black pepper or to taste, cracked
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a food processor, blend completely.
- Add a bit of water - a couple teaspoons - and pulse until consistency is smooth. Taste, add salt and pepper if needed.
- Serve immediately or store in airtight container up to five days.
Notes
- Garbanzo bean alternates: I have tried this with garbanzos/chickpeas, almonds, and cashews - all are delicious!
- Heat level: As written, this sauce is not spicy. When I make it for my husband and myself (we love spicy food) I add more crushed red pepper flakes to give it a good spicy kick!
- Store it: This sauce keeps really really well if you store it in an airtight container in the fridge. It never lasts longer than a week at my house because we pull it out to add to so many favorite dishes - great for pork, chicken, steak, potatoes, and vegetables. We even dip our bread in it.
