Roasted Red Jalapeno Pepper Hot Sauce Recipe

Step 1

Heat your oven to 350 degrees. Slice the jalapeno peppers in half lengthwise and remove the stems. Set them onto a lightly oiled baking sheet and bake 20-25 minutes, or until the skins blister.

Step 2

Remove from heat and cover with aluminum foil or a towel to allow them to steam. Peel off the skins and discard.

Step 3

Set the peppers into a food processor.

Step 4

Heat a small pan to medium heat and add chopped onion and garlic with a splash of olive oil. Cook about 5 minutes to soften.

Step 5

Add all remaining ingredients and heat through. Into the food processor they go.

Step 6

Process the sauce until smooth. You can also use a food mill if you’d like your sauce to be thick and consistent.

Step 7

Test for salt and serve!
