Smoky Chipotle Yogurt Sauce
Smoky chipotle yogurt sauce with lemon, paprika, and a touch of honey. Five-minute high-protein sauce for bowls, wraps, and roasted vegetables.
Ingredients
For the sauce
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or thick plain dahi chilled
- 1 teaspoon chipotle powder or 1/2 teaspoon chipotle chilli powder
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon cold water
- 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- pinch fine salt to taste
Instructions
Whisk together
- Whisk yogurt until smooth. Add chipotle powder, lemon juice, garlic powder, water, honey, paprika, and salt.
- Mix until evenly rusty-orange and creamy. Rest 5 minutes, then taste and adjust heat or salt.
Notes
Vegan swap — Plant yogurt + maple syrup instead of honey.
Heat control — Start with 1/2 tsp chipotle powder; add more after resting.
Make-ahead — 3–4 days refrigerated; flavours deepen slightly overnight.
Serving — Sweet potato bowls, paneer wraps, and roasted corn salads.
