Creamy Chipotle Sauce

Recipe by Veronika Sykorova

This Creamy Chipotle Sauce is super easy to make, it's spicy, smoky, and extra creamy. It's delicious served as a dip with fries, spread on sandwiches and burgers, or drizzled over rice bowls, salad, and roasted veggies. 

  • Total Time10 minutes
  • Yield4-8 1x
  • DietVegetarian

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 3/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise (I like using 100% avocado oil mayonnaise)
  • 1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce
  • 1 tbsp adobo sauce*
  • 1 tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1 clove garlic, minced or grated
  • 1/2 tsp fine sea salt

Instructions

  1. Add everything to a food processor and blend until smooth. You may need to scrape down the sides if your food processor is large.
  2. Alternatively, you can also do this in a blender or blend it in a jar using an immersion blender.
  3. Store the sauce in the fridge until ready to serve. It will thicken slightly as it sits in the fridge.

Notes

*The chipotle in adobo cans I use also have onions in the adobo sauce, which I also add to the sauce. If you don’t have chipotle in adobo, you can use ¼-½ tsp chipotle powder instead. 

Storing: I recommend making this sauce ahead so it has time to thicken in the fridge. Store it in an airtight jar or a squeeze bottle in the fridge for up to 4-5 days.
