Note
- We are loving our Sweet Chipotles lately, they are very tasty and a bit less spicy than the regular chipotles in adobo. The best way to describe them is as a spicy chutney with all the flavour from chipotles and sweetness added. This is one of the reasons why they work so well in this easy but delicious recipe.
- This is not the first time we use sweet chipotles to add a delicious twist to recipes, check this Red & Green Sauce Chicken where they add such an amazing zing of sweetness and spice at the same time to the red sauce. You can find the recipe here.
