Напрямки

preheat

Start by heating oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.

cook the flour and chili

Next, add flour, chili powder, and cumin, and mix them together. Immediately reduce the heat to medium, and cook the flour-chili mixture until lightly browned, stirring constantly to prevent burning. This process takes about one minute.

add the rest of the ingredients

Gradually stir in: tomato sauce, tomato paste, chicken broth, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, brown sugar, and vinegar into the flour and chili powder mix until smooth.

cook until thickened

Cook over medium heat for about 8-10 minutes, or until the sauce thickens slightly. If the sauce becomes too thick, gradually add more water or broth.

season

Season to taste with salt.

serve

The recipe makes about 3 1/2 to 4 cups of sauce, depending on how thick you like it. Let the sauce fully cool before refrigerating or freezing.
