Mama's Kitchen's Raspberry Chipotle Sauce

Great dipping sauce or grilling sauce! Sweet and spicy and smoky all at the same time! Enjoy!

• Ready In: 15 mins
• Yields: 1 batch

Ingredients

• 2  cups fresh raspberries or 2  cups frozen unsweetened raspberries, thawed or 1 1⁄2 cups  raspberry jam, omit the sugar if using jam
• 1⁄4 cup sugar
• 1⁄4 cup  ruby port
• 1  chipotle chile in adobo, from a 7 ounce can more to taste

Directions

1. (You can use the adobo the chilies are packed in if you like. It will make it hotter!).
2. Combine all ingredients in a heavy sauce pan and simmer, stirring occasionally, until sugar is dissolved.
3. Allow to cool a little if desired.
4. Transfer to a food processor or blender and blend until sauce is smooth. I use my immersion blender.
5. Remove seeds from sauce using a fine mesh strainer if desired.
