Notes
- Chipotle paste can be swapped for chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (2-3 peppers for one batch) or chipotle powder (½ teaspoon for one batch).
- If using chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, blend the sauce in a food processor or blender
- If using chipotle powder or chipotles without seasoning you can add a bit of onion powder as well
- If you don't have a garlic press you can chop the garlic very small instead
- The flavor and spice deepens as it sits so if you plan on storing it you might want to reduce the amount of chipotle paste
- Make it less spicy by using less chipotle paste
- Make it spicier by adding more chipotle paste or a dash of cayenne pepper
- Store in the fridge in an airtight container and it's good for at least a week
