- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Lime juice

- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
In a small saucepan, combine honey, ketchup, and apple cider vinegar over medium heat.
Step 2
Finely chop the chipotle peppers from the adobo sauce and add them to the saucepan. If you prefer a milder sauce, use only the adobo sauce and omit the chopped chipotle peppers.
Step 3
Stir in soy sauce, lime juice, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt.
Step 4
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally to ensure the ingredients are fully combined.
Step 5
Reduce the heat to low and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the sauce thickens slightly and reaches your desired consistency.
Step 6
Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes. Transfer to a blender or use an immersion blender to puree the sauce until smooth, if desired.
Step 7
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more honey for sweetness or additional chipotle/adobo for heat.
Step 8
Let the sauce cool completely before using. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
