Ingredients
Instructions
-
Begin by preparing your chipotle peppers. Remove two chipotle peppers from the can, making sure to reserve some of the adobo sauce for added flavor.

Finely chop the chipotle peppers. For a spicier mayonnaise, you can keep the seeds.
-
In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, chopped chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, minced garlic, and lime juice.
-
Mix all the ingredients thoroughly until well incorporated.
-
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remember that the chipotle peppers and adobo sauce already contain salt, so start with a small amount and adjust if needed.
-
Transfer the chipotle mayonnaise to a clean jar or container with a lid. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
-
Enjoy your homemade Chipotle Mayonnaise on sandwiches, burgers, tacos, or as a zesty dipping sauce. Feel free to experiment with adding a dollop to your favorite dishes for an extra kick of flavor.
