Roasted Red Pepper and Garlic Aioli

Have you ever made a sauce that is so good, that instead of it being a dipping sauce(little bit on the end of whatever you are eating) it turns into the main dish...like instead of eating chicken with a side of roasted red pepper and garlic aioli, we had roasted red pepper and garlic aioli with a side of chicken...you're with me on this right?? Don't tell me you have never done that...a sauce so good it literally turns into the main meal on your plate.  That would just about sum up this Roasted Red Pepper and Garlic Aioli.  My husband and I discussed how we could practically eat this with a spoon. :)  I have been making this sauce for quite some time now, and everyone I have introduced it to, has loved it.  This sauce goes with just about every standard meat out there.  We LOVE it on chicken, and it goes great in the summer on barbecued meat.  I am even going to experiment with this in a pasta salad...MmmMmm, and other ideas.  If you like these ingredients, seriously you HAVE to try this! SO stinkin' good!  :)
Roasted Red Pepper and Garlic Aioli



Prep Time: 10 minutes at the most
No Cook Time
Servings:  makes roughly a cup of sauce
Difficulty: Super Easy

Roasted Red Pepper and Garlic Aioli
Ingredients:
  • 3/4 cup Sweet Roasted Red Peppers out of a jar(you can find these at most large super markets)
  • 1/4 cup Mayonnaise(I use Light)
  • 3 Garlic Cloves, chopped
  • Sea Salt, to taste
  • 2 Tbsp Olive Oil

Place the roasted red peppers in your colander, and let the peppers drip off as much liquid as you can.  Place roasted red pepper on a couple paper towels, and blot off the remaining liquid. 




In a food processor add the roasted red peppers, mayonnaise, garlic, and sea salt.  Puree until smooth.  Drizzle in olive oil, and puree until incorporated. 




Done!  Serve immediately, or store in the refrigerator until ready to use.  We eat this right away, or cold.  We haven't heated it up, and I am not sure how it would hold together, but it is totally up to you what you want to do.  Please let me know if you try this! Enjoy!!!

Now you see it...

Now you don't!  It disappears that quick! :)


I adapted this recipe from Kalyn's Kitchen

Question of the Day:
Is there a sauce that you are tempted/do take a heaping spoonful of??? 

THIS ONE! I don't think I have actually eaten a whole spoonful straight out of the dish, but I definitely have more sauce then chicken in each bite! :)
