Some like it hot!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

In the past when I have purchased Thai Sweet Chili Sauce I would buy 2-3 bottles at a time because one time the store was out and I had to go to another brand and it wasn’t good. I’ve seen several sweet chili sauce recipes and after looking at the ingredients on my favorite brand, I decided to make my own.<\/p>\n

I’ve used this on my egg rolls, dumplings, I’ve added ketchup to it for a cocktail sauce for shrimp, I’ve brushed it on my husband’s grilled chicken wings and the good thing is I can make it whenever I need it since I always have the ingredients in my pantry.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I posted a Brussels Sprout Salad<\/a> a few years ago where I used my store bought Thai Sweet Chili Sauce and added a few other ingredients to it to make a dressing for the salad. You can use this recipe for Thai Sweet Chili Sauce as is for the dressing for that salad or use as I suggested above. You can take this sauce and simply add some oil and a little more vinegar to it and have a great Asian salad dressing.<\/p>\n

BLAST FROM THE PAST<\/strong><\/span>: Butterflies with Chicken, Asparagus and Snap Peas<\/a> would be a great fall dish and it is so pretty.<\/p>\n
