taco chipotle

Common ingredients include chipotle peppers plus supporting flavors such as tomatoes, onions, garlic, cumin, oregano, and other chiles like guajillo and arbol. Specific blends vary by product.

Brown stew meat, add the chipotle cooking sauce, then simmer partially covered until tender (about 1½ hours). For some seasoning blends, add them directly to meat with water and onions, then cook down to form a sauce base.

Heat varies by product: some are labeled mild, several salsas and purees are labeled medium, and at least one hot sauce lists a Scoville range of about 1,500–2,500 SHU.
