Ingredients:

  • 4 -5 chipotle chiles (the ones in the adobe sauce are really easy to split open and rinse out)
  • 1/3 cup cooking oil (your favorite just don'tsp use olive oil as it is too rich for this recipe)
  • 1/2 cup pine nuts
  • 2 -4 garlic cloves

Directions:

  1. In a food processor combine oil and garlic pulse until garlic is minced.
  2. Let sit for at least 15 minutes allowing the oil to take on the flavor of the garlic.
  3. Next add all the ingredients except the parmesan cheese.
  4. Pulse until you haved a smooth consistency.
  5. Remove to an air tight container and stir in the cheese.
  6. Refrigerate overnight.
  7. This is really good over angel hair pasta but you may find a way to use it that you like.
