Recipe ingredients:

  • SAUCE: I use 1 cup of tomato ketchup as a base to this sauce.

  • Want to add a touch of sourness, add a splash of apple cider vinegar.

Recipe hints & tips:

  • The adobo chili peppers are canned and usually found in the Mexican food section of any grocery store. The chipotle chili powder is found in the spice aisle.
  • If the ketchup is a little too thick, thin it down with a splash of water.

Serving suggestion:

Spicy Chipotle Ketchup can be added to so many dishes, it’s perfect for dipping your Homemade French Fries (or frozen fries). Add some to burgers, fish slides, chicken wings, or fried chicken.

This is a really versatile ketchup I serve it with everything from my Oven Baked Chicken Fried Steak and Best Easy Meatloaf to my Mac-N-Cheese Mini Bites and Philly Cheesesteak Potato Skins. Basically anywhere you want to add that intense smoky tomato flavor.
