This Red Chile Sauce is absolutely phenomenal. I made it twice in 3 days and am already planning to make a huge batch to can. I am blown away at how amazing this recipe is. 

Now I do think what makes this recipe extra special is I used peppers solely from our garden. I have included the exact peppers I used, however, I understand not everyone has access to these exact peppers, so I have included a more generic version. If you have spicy or sweet peppers at home use them!! It is okay to get creative with it! That is what makes this recipe special. The peppers are where a lot the flavor comes from, so you can add more spicy or more mild peppers and switch the taste up to whatever you like. 

I use an immersion blender to smooth the sauce out completely. I don’t like chunks, but that is my preference. You can make it as chunky or smooth as you like. You can also use a food processor or blender to do this step. 

This recipe is amazing. I have two recipes I will be posting that use it: Chile Rellenos con Venison and Enchiladas. While these will be posted there are so many other ways to use this Red Chile Sauce. I am already planning on making pupusas and quesadillas with it. IT IS AMAZING!!! I hope y’all enjoy it as much as my family did!

Equipment

  • Deep Sauce Pan
  • Blender or Immersion Blender
  • Mason Jar

Ingredients

  • 4 small spicy peppers I used 1 green and 1 red small serrano (smaller than my pinky) and 2 Cajun bell peppers which are the size of a habanero. You can substitute 1 jalapeno or regular sized serrano
  • 2 sweet peppers I used red banana peppers, but you can substitute any sweet peppers
  • 2 T butter
  • 1 small onion chopped
  • 1 tomato Chopped; I used a Creole Tomato
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 T flour
  • 1.5 C water
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1.5 tsp Better than Bouillon-Chicken Base
  • 1/4 tsp chili powder

Instructions

  • Boil all of the peppers until soft.
  • Let cool ( I speed this process up by running them under cool water). Remove stems and seeds (leave seeds if you want REALLY spicy).
  • Chop the peppers. Chop onions, tomato, and garlic if you haven't already.
  • Heat butter in the sauce pan over medium-high heat. Add onions and cook until transparent/soft.
  • Add peppers and cook for 2 minutes.
  • Add tomato and garlic and cook for 3 minutes.
  • Stir in flour and sauté for another 2 minutes to create a light roux type mixture.
  • Add water and stir until all combined.
  • Mix in all seasonings and simmer for 8-10 minutes.
  • Using an immersion blender or blender or food processor, blend the sauce until desired consistency. I like mine very smooth. ENJOY!

Notes

I like to double, triple, even quadruple this recipe and can it because it can be used in so many ways and utilizes so many veggies in our garden.

My poppy was the only one at the Thanksgiving table that would always use/request cranberry sauce. My mom would pop open a can of ocean spray cranberry sauce and serve him that. I remember thinking how gross it looked. I wish he could try this and tell me what he thought. He would have loved this sauce and he would’ve loved it on the sandwiches I made with it! As a non-cranberry sauce lover, this is fabulous.

Ingredients

  • 16 oz frozen cranberries
  • 1/2 cup orange juice

  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar

Instructions

  • Combine all the ingredients in a saucepan over medium to medium high heat.
  • Bring it to a boil, stirring occasionally.
  • The cranberries will pop which will help the sauce start to thicken.
  • Reduce to a simmer for 10-12 minutes.
  • Refrigerate until cool and serve!
  • If you prefer a sweeter cranberry sauce add more sugar, this is a more tart cranberry sauce.

Ingredients

Nuggets:

  • 2 lbs gator cut into bite size “nugget” pieces
  • 2 C milk
  • 1 C pickle juice
  • 3 eggs
  • 3.5 C flour
  • 6 T powdered sugar
  • 1 T corn starch
  • 4.5 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp fresh ground pepper
  • peanut oil enough to fry

Sauce:*

  • 1 C mayo
  • 4 tsp mustard
  • 2 tsp lemon juice
  • 4 T honey
  • 2 T BBQ sauce I used hickory flavor
  • 1 tsp paprika plus more to taste/color

Instructions

  • Mix milk, pickle juice and eggs together in a small bowl. Place gator in a Ziplock bag with the milk mixture.
  • Marinate 2-4 hours (the longer the marination time the more of a pickle flavor there will be).
  • In a shallow dish, like a pie dish, mix together the flour, powdered sugar, corn starch, salt and ground pepper.
  • Dredge the marinating nuggets in the flour mixture.
  • Heat 2 inches of peanut oil in a deep frying pan. When you drop a bit of the flour in, it should sizzle (~375 degrees).
  • Place the nuggets in the hot oil carefully. Cook until done and golden brown (~3-6 minutes).

Sauce:

  • Mix all of the sauce ingredients together.

Notes

*You can buy small bottles of Chick-fil-a sauce at many grocery stores and even Chick-fil-a.
