Chutney Ingredients
- 1 12-ounce bag of fresh cranberries
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup orange juice
- 2 tablespoons adobo sauce from the can of chipotles
- 1 chipotle pepper, diced
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the cranberries, sugar, orange juice, adobo sauce, and diced chipotle pepper. Stir thoroughly to mix all the flavors.
- Simmer the Chutney: Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, allowing it to bubble and cook for about 10 minutes. Stir occasionally until the cranberries start to break down and the mixture thickens slightly but remains chunky with texture.

- Adjust the amount of chipotle pepper or adobo sauce to control the heat level to your taste.
- Store leftover chutney in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
