How to Make Chipotle Cream Sauce

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1/2 cup finely chopped shallots and 2 cloves minced garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened.
  2. Pour in 1/2 cup chicken broth and 1/4 cup dry white wine (or vodka for a kick!). Sauté for another 3 minutes, allowing the liquid to reduce slightly.
  3. Reduce heat to medium-low. Whisk in 1 cup sour cream until smooth. Stir in 1-2 tablespoons of pureed chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (adjust to your spice preference).
  4. Simmer for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, to heat through. Season generously with salt and white pepper to taste.
  5. Serve immediately over cooked chicken, pasta, or your favorite protein.
  6. Makes approximately 2 servings.
