16 Servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 2 to 4 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce finely minced
- 2 cloves garlic finely minced
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
Combine the base ingredients.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the mayonnaise, fresh lime juice, minced chipotle peppers, minced garlic, and salt. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well incorporated.
Optional: Blend for smoother texture.
- For a silkier consistency, transfer the mixture to a small food processor and pulse until completely smooth. This step is optional but recommended for a more refined finish.
Adjust seasoning.
- Taste the aioli and adjust according to preference. Add more chipotle peppers for increased heat or a pinch of additional salt to enhance the overall flavor.
Chill to develop flavor.
- Cover the aioli and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld, resulting in a deeper, more cohesive taste.
Serve.
- Prior to serving, stir the aioli briefly. Enjoy as a spread, dip, or sauce to complement a variety of dishes.
