Chipotle Recipes

I have several more recipes for mole, such as tamarind and "Holy Leaf". I know this is not a "short" recipe, but it is worth the effort. Good Luck!

Check the cookbook. I just glanced at the recipe today, but that's the idea.

This dessert combination of bittersweet chocolate and dusky dried chilies isn't so strange when you consider their happy pairing in Mexican mole sauce. This is a sort of reverse mole sauce-heavy on the sweet and chocolate, light on the spicy essence of chili peppers. If you have the same passions for chocolate and hot chilies that I do, you won't be disappointed by this exotic cake recipe.

Sugar soothes and spice excites, a contrast the allure of this lightly smoky, slightly sweet roasted turkey breast.

I created this in response to a post looking for a recipe for this dish that was either nutty or with coconut. I also saw some other post that had preferred recipes without tomatoes. I will be also experimenting with trying this with wine.

This easy-to-make recado adds a smoky complexity to a wide range of foods from corn to pork to seafood and almost anything else.

Chimichurri is a fresh herb-and-vinegar mixture used in Argentinean cuisine both for basting grilled meats and as a condiment. It's incredible with steak, as you will see!

The addition of sweet honey and smoky chipotle chiles in adobo sauce reinvents and revitalizes the traditional pineapple-glazed ham. This sweet-spicy glaze can easily be adjusted for mild or fiery tastes.

Note: Canned chipotle chilies (smoked and dried jalapenos), packed in adobo sauce, are available in Hispanic markets and the imported food aisle of large supermarkets, such as Omni and Cub Foods. The remainder of the can may be transferred to a jar and refrigerated for several months.

If you have a smoker, I highly recomend you smoke the Vegetables for an hour before dicing!!

This sauce is easy to prepare, and a wonderful alternative to traditional tomato sauces. Here half of a chipotle chile has been added to deepen the flavor and add a hint offull-bodied heat. If you prefer a milder sauce, omit the chile.
