Number Of Ingredients 14

2 dried ancho chile peppers
2 dried chipotle chile peppers
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
3 cloves garlic, peeled
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

  • Remove ancho chile peppers from the water, remove seeds and veins, and cut into small strips. Remove chipotle chile peppers from the water and remove stems, leaving peppers whole.
  • Combine ancho chiles, chipotle chiles, tomato sauce, and garlic in a blender and process until fairly smooth. While mixing, add cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper to the marinade and blend.
