Red Chipotle Sauce Recipe for Enchiladas Rojas De Queso

How To Make Chipotle Sauce (For Enchiladas)

This Chipotle Sauce recipe is unique in that it is a spicy, flavorful tomato-based sauce made with roasted tomatoes and chipotle chiles in adobo sauce and not a mayonnaise based sauce.

This Chipotle Sauce is made with fresh Roma tomatoes that are roasted and then combined with chipotle chiles in adobo sauce, onions, and garlic.

This is a chipotle sauce created by cookbook authors, Cappy Lawton and Chris Waters Dunn, and found in Enchiladas Aztec to Tex Mex Cookbook. This chipotle sauce is made with Chipotles en adobo and roasted tomatoes.
