Notes

Tips & Tricks

Honey can be a sticky mess when measuring. To keep things easy, lightly spray the measuring cup with a thin layer of oil before adding the honey. That way the honey will slide right out.
As the chipotle honey sauce cools, it will thicken, so don't be concerned if it seems a little loose at first. If it gets too firm, gently warm it in the microwave for 10-12 seconds to loosen it up.

How to store

Keep any leftover sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. For longer storage, freeze it for up to 2–3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator, then gently warm and stir before using.
