    What is Subway Chipotle Southwest Sauce?

    Subway® is a fast-food restaurant chain known for its sandwiches and salads. They are well-known for their "subs" made with fresh ingredients.

    The southwest chipotle sauce, a zesty and flavorful sauce used on their menu items, is one of their signature sauces.

    It is one of the most flavorful subway sauces, zesty and flavorful, with a spicy kick from chipotle peppers!


    Perfect with Your Burgers and Sandwiches

    What is Chipotle pepper in adobo sauce?

    The key to this homemade sauce is chipotle peppers in adobo. Chipotle chilies are dried and smoked red jalapenos. They are moderately hot and have a fruity, smoky flavor.

    The adobo sauce contains onion, tomato, vinegar, and spices.

    A flavorful sauce is created when they are combined. This sauce is smooth and tangy with a little sweetness. You can find this sauce at almost every grocery store.


    Why You Will Love Subway Chipotle Southwest Sauce

    Subway Chipotle Southwest Sauce Ingredients

    Subway Chipotle Southwest Sauce ingredients include mayonnaise, honey, chipotle in adobo sauce, lime juice ranch dressing and salt

    Here's the full ingredient list for the Subway Chipotle Southwest Sauce:

    Mayonnaise: It's the base of this sauce and adds creaminess.

    Ranch dressing: This adds a lot of flavor to the sauce, as well as some zesty flavor.

    Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce: It is the main component of southwest flavors! These are usually available in cans in the international section of most supermarkets.

    Honey: I use honey to add a touch of sweetness to the southwest sauce. It can be replaced with maple syrup or sugar.

    Garlic powder and onion powder: They are great flavor enhancers!

    Lime Juice: Fresh lime juice balances the flavors and helps to brighten them by adding a hint of acidity.

    Salt: Add salt or kosher salt to taste.

    • Storing: This chipotle southwest sauce keeps for up to two weeks days in an airtight container, a squeeze bottle, or jar. Before using, give it a good stir to redistribute the flavors.
