How to Make Spicy Chili Sauce

  1. Finely chop 1/4 cup of red onion.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup bottled chili sauce, the chopped red onion, 3 teaspoons white vinegar, 1 teaspoon packed brown sugar, 1 clove crushed garlic, 1/4 teaspoon dry mustard, 1/4 teaspoon bottled hot pepper sauce (such as Frank's RedHot), and 1/8 teaspoon salt.
  3. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
  4. Reduce heat to low, and simmer uncovered for 10 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
  5. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add more hot sauce for extra heat, or sugar for sweetness.
  6. Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
