Ingredients

• 1 can (13.5 oz) coconut milk
• 0.5 cup coconut cream
• 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
• 1 tablespoon, grated fresh ginger
• 2 cloves, minced garlic
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons coconut aminos
• 0.125 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Directions

Step 1

In a small saucepan over medium heat, pour the coconut milk and coconut cream. Stir gently to combine.

Step 2

Add the grated fresh ginger and minced garlic to the pan. Stir and let it simmer for about 3-4 minutes, allowing the flavors to infuse.

Step 3

Stir in the fresh lime juice, honey, salt, black pepper, coconut aminos, and cayenne pepper. Mix everything thoroughly.

Step 4

Allow the sauce to simmer lightly for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking or burning.

Step 5

Once the sauce has thickened slightly, gradually whisk in the extra virgin olive oil, which will help emulsify and add richness to the sauce.

Step 6

Taste, and adjust seasoning as needed. If you prefer a bit more tang, add an additional squeeze of lime juice.

Step 7

Remove the saucepan from heat. Let the sauce cool slightly before serving.

Step 8

Serve the sauce warm over your favorite paleo dishes such as grilled chicken, roasted vegetables, or as a creamy dip for raw veggies.
