Heat is an integral aspect of Southwestern cooking, so it's no surprise that local chiles of all kinds accent the flavor of Thanksgiving. Cooks put them in everything from Hatch turkey rubs to chipotle mashed potatoes to chiltepin cranberry sauce, which uses the small, round, fiery hot chiles that are native to Arizona and northern Mexico. You can make this sauce a day ahead and chill it; if it's too stiff for your tastes when you remove it from the fridge, add a little water and sugar, reheat until simmering and then cool once more. (And for everything you need to know about cranberry sauce, check out our cranberry sauce guide.)

Steps:
- Set aside the zest of 1 lime (about 1 teaspoon) for garnish. In a large saucepan, combine all the remaining ingredients with 1/4 cup water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring often, until thick, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Transfer to a serving dish and allow to cool. (Sauce will continue to thicken.) Garnish with the reserved lime zest.
