Ingredients
- 1 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tsp Adobo Sauce from canned peppers in chipotle sauce. You can add peppers to this mayo for more heat
- 1 tsp Smoked Paprika
- ½ teaspoon Garlic Powder
- ½ teaspoon Onion Powder
- ½ Lime juiced, about 1 tbsp of juice
- Natural Ancient Sea Salt to taste
Instructions
- Add all of your ingredients to a small bowl or jar.
- Whisk to combine. Make sure the spices are fully incorporated with the mayo.
- If in a bowl, transfer your mayo to a small mason jar or other airtight container and chill in the fridge until you are ready to use it.
Notes
- Adobo sauce: Use the sauce from a can of chipotle peppers in adobo. The whole peppers are not needed. Freeze the leftovers in small portions to use in Chipotle Chicken or Slow Cooker Mexican Shredded Chicken.
- Adjust the heat: Add more adobo sauce one teaspoon at a time for a spicier mayo.
- Lime juice: Fresh lime juice has the brightest flavor, but bottled juice also works.
- Storage: Refrigerate in a clean, airtight container for up to one week.
- Freezing: Do not freeze the finished mayonnaise because it may separate.
