The heat of the jalapeño cuts the sweetness here for a nicely balanced sauce. It’s a perfect fit for a grilled pizza with beef and smoky cheddar cheese.
- 1 red onion, chopped
- 6 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 jalapeño, chopped
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 1 cup vinegar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- ½ cup molasses
- 1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon mustard powder
- Salt and pepper, to tast
In a pot, sauté the onion, garlic, and jalapeño until soft and onion becomes translucent. Add the remaining ingredients and simmer until the sauce becomes thick and bubbly. Carefully transfer the sauce to a blender or food processor and pulse until smooth.
