CHIPOTLE DRESSING

Chipotle Dressing image

Easy dressing to jazz up anything. Can use regular or greek yogurt, or sour cream depending on what will suit what you are putting it on. I suppose you could use mayo too, but I have not tried it. Also, I pick the vinegar to suit what I am putting it on, I've tried: white, apple cider, malt, red wine, rice, and they were all good. I take the entire can of chipotle in adobo & put it in the mini chopper & blend it into a paste. I freeze it in tablespoon portions in an ice cube tray and once frozen put them in a freezer bag to be used in sauces, or soups, etc.

Tips:

Make sure to use ripe chipotle peppers for the best flavor. If you can't find ripe chipotle peppers, you can substitute canned chipotle peppers in adobo sauce.
If you don't have a blender, you can mash the chipotle peppers and other ingredients together with a fork or spoon. However, a blender will give you a smoother dressing.
This dressing can be used on salads, tacos, burritos, and other Mexican-inspired dishes. It can also be used as a marinade for chicken, fish, or shrimp.
If you want a spicier dressing, add more chipotle peppers. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder.
If you want a sweeter dressing, add more honey or maple syrup. You can also add a splash of orange juice or lime juice.

Conclusion:

Sweet chipotle dressing is a versatile and flavorful dressing that can be used on a variety of dishes. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a new dressing to try, give sweet chipotle dressing a try. You won't be disappointed!
