Ingredients

• 12 pieces Fresh red chilies (such as cayenne, Fresno, or red jalapeños)
• 2 pieces Habanero peppers
• 4 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 cup White vinegar
• 1 cup Water
• 2 tablespoons Light brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Lime juice (freshly squeezed)

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the chilies and habanero peppers by washing them thoroughly. Remove the stems and roughly chop them. (Wear gloves to protect your hands from the heat.)

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped peppers, garlic, white vinegar, water, light brown sugar, smoked paprika, and salt.

Step 3

Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook for 15 minutes until the peppers soften and the liquid slightly reduces.

Step 4

Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mixture cool for about 5 minutes.

Step 5

Carefully transfer the mixture to a blender or use an immersion blender directly in the saucepan. Blend until smooth.

Step 6

Strain the blended hot sauce through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl or jar to remove skins and seeds, if you prefer a smoother texture (optional).

Step 7

Stir in the lime juice and mix thoroughly. Taste and adjust salt or lime juice to your desired balance of flavor.

Step 8

Transfer the hot sauce to a sterilized glass bottle or jar. Let it cool completely before sealing and storing.

Step 9

Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 months. Shake well before using.
