A sweet-savory sauce that's great with the grilled meats. Adjust the heat by adding hot pepper sauce to taste. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon vegetable oil |
2 cups chopped onions |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
2 12-ounce bottles (ketchup-style) chili sauce |
1 12- to 13-ounce jar cherry preserves or jam |
1 cup cherry cola (regular, not diet) |
1/3 cup (packed) golden brown sugar |
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar |
1 teaspoon (or more) hot pepper sauce |
Directions:
1. Heat oil in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add onions; sauté until golden, about 7 minutes. Add garlic and stir 1 minute. Stir in chili sauce, preserves, cherry cola, brown sugar, and vinegar; bring to simmer, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer uncovered until reduced to 4 cups, stirring often to prevent scorching, about 50 minutes. Stir in 1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce. Season to taste with salt and pepper and more hot pepper sauce, if desired. Transfer to bowl and cool completely. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 weeks ahead. Cover and refrigerate. |
