Description

This Spicy Raspberry Chipotle Sauce combines sweet raspberries and smoky chipotle peppers into a bold, tangy condiment that elevates everything from grilled meats to cheese boards.

Ingredients

2 cups raspberries (fresh or frozen)
2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (adjust for heat)
1/2 cup diced onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup water (as needed for consistency)

Instructions

In a saucepan over medium heat, sauté onion and garlic in a bit of oil until soft and translucent.
Add chipotle peppers, raspberries, vinegar, sweetener, and salt. Stir to combine.
Simmer for 15–20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the raspberries break down and the mixture thickens slightly.
Remove from heat and let cool slightly, then transfer to a blender and blend until smooth.
Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds and solids.
Adjust consistency with water if needed. Taste and tweak spice or sweetness as desired.
Store in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or freeze for long-term storage.

Notes

Use honey or maple syrup instead of sugar for a refined sugar-free version. Pairs beautifully with pork, chicken, roasted vegetables, or as a dipping sauce for cheese and crackers.
