Honey Chipotle Glaze

General

sweet, smoky, with chipotle heat — fast-burning, spectacular finish

When to apply

last 10–15 min only, maximum 2 layers — burns very fast

Ingredients & recipe

Honey4 tbsp
Chipotle In Adobo2 tbsp
Apple Cider Vinegar30 ml
Garlic Powder0.5 tsp
Smoked Paprika0.5 tsp

tbsp = tablespoon / cucchiaio · ml = milliliters / millilitri · tsp = teaspoon / cucchiaino

Preparation

  1. Blend the chipotle in adobo until smooth (or mince finely).
  2. Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan over low heat.
  3. Stir until the honey loosens and ingredients combine, about 3–5 minutes.
  4. Cool slightly before use — it thickens as it cools.

Notes

Chipotle in adobo is smoky and hot — start with one tablespoon if you want less heat. The glaze caramelizes beautifully but burns instantly if applied too early.
