HABANERO

Wearing gloves, remove the stems from the habanero peppers. Cut them in half lengthwise and remove the seeds for a milder sauce or leave them in for extra heat.

Prepare the Habaneros

Peel the garlic cloves and finely mince them using a knife or a garlic press.

Mince the Garlic

In a blender, combine the prepared habaneros, minced garlic, lime juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth.

Blend the Ingredients

Add the fresh cilantro to the blender and pulse a few times to mix it in, leaving some texture.

Add Cilantro

Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, lime juice, or olive oil to your preference.

Taste and Adjust

Transfer the habanero sauce to a clean jar. It can be served immediately or stored in the refrigerator for up to a week.
