Note

Store the sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. The flavors will deepen as it sits.

For a milder version, use fewer chipotle chilies or remove the seeds before blending. For extra heat, add more chilies or a dash of hot sauce.

This sauce pairs well with grilled chicken, fish tacos, roasted vegetables, or as a dip for fried foods.

If the sauce is too thick after refrigeration, add a splash of vegetable stock or water to reach the desired consistency.
