How to Make 15 Minute Chili Sauce

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine all ingredients.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
  3. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer gently for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. The sauce will thicken slightly as it simmers.
  4. Remove from heat and let cool completely before transferring to sterilized jars for storage in the refrigerator (up to 1 year), canning, or freezing.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
