Directions
Step 1
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the finely chopped jalapeños, honey, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, smoked paprika, soy sauce, and minced garlic.
Step 2
Stir the mixture until the sugar dissolves completely, about 2-3 minutes.

Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency, about 5-7 minutes.
Step 6
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the sauce cool slightly.
Step 7
Use as a dipping sauce for chicken tenders, fries, or veggies, or brush generously over a ham during the final 15 minutes of roasting to create a glossy, caramelized glaze.
