directions

  • Toast the chiles in the oven for 2 minutes or until fragrant being careful not to burn.
  • Place the toasted chiles in a sauce pan, cover with water and bring to a boil. Boil on medium heat covered for 15 minutes.
  • Place the chiles (stems removed) in the blender reserving the water they were inches Add in all the other ingredients and blend on high to make a fairly thick paste. Add some of the reserved water if needed to thin the sauce out.
  • Marinate your choice of meat in this paste for 6-8 hours and then grill the meat or you can pour the paste and reserved water in a large stock pot with the meat. Add additional water to cover the meat and slow cook it for 3-4 hours in the pot.

  1. This was very good. I made the marinade at night, and marinated it with chicken until dinnertime the next day. I was a bit concerned when I tasted the marinade- it was a tad bitter. Hubby tasted a tiny peice off of the grill and said it was not bitter at all, and upon eating it, it really wasn't. So I guess it was just my odd taste. I froze 1/2 of the marinade to save for later, I am really looking forward to using it, maybe this time on some pork loin. Thanks so much for posting!
