Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Remove stems from Chiles. Heat a heavy skillet on medium heat. Throw in dried Chiles and dry toast 3 - 4 minutes shaking the pan to prevent them from burning. They should become quite aromatic and the skin should feel hot and begin to soften a little.
  2. In a med - large saucepan bring the 3 Cups of water to a boil. Place Toasted Chiles in boiling water. Boil for 1 minute, cover and let sit for about 20 minutes until Chiles are soft and rehydrated.
  3. In a blender, puree the Chiles with the remaining ingredients. Chill for at least 30 mins. Serve Cold with Tortillia chips.
  4. To serve as a sauce: Heat 2 Tbls Peanut Oil in a high sided pan and refry the sauce at a sizzle for 3 - 5 mins. Add a little water if it gets too thick.
  5. I have used this sauce to baste Shrimp and Scallop Kabobs or spoon a small pool on a plate and place grilled kabobs on top of the sauce.
