Diabla Sauce Mexican Food

Diabla sauce

justjakesmom 15 years ago

I know there must be a lot of Mexican foodies on here, so I need your help PLEASE. Does anyone know how to make "diabla" sauce ? My husband loves it. We've had Pollo ala diabla and other "diabla" named dishes at different Mexican restaurants, but I would like to make it for him. I tried last week from a recipe (only 1 found) I got off the internet, but it wasn't right. Too tomatoey, not the right taste. ANYONE?????????

Will this work? It is HOT and you could adapt it for a sauce over food. It that's not hot, then nothing is.

Thanks tp, I saw that last week and printed it, but it's not quite the same as diabla sauce. Anyway, I gave up and called the place, and he said he would make me a batch when i wanted it. Something about a special ingredient from Mexico - blah blah blah

Does this sound right?

2–3 individual chipotle chiles in adobo sauce*
1 tablespoon adobo sauce (from the canned chiles)
1 1/2 cups tomato juice
*Embasa sells 7-ounce cans of chipotle chilies in adobo sauce in the Hispanic section of supermarkets, and at Mexican and Latin markets.

Note: This recipe produces a lightly spicy sauce. Turn up the heat by adding more chiles and adobo sauce, or using a little less tomato juice.

Directions

To make the diabla sauce, combine the canned chipotle chilies and tomato juice in a blender and puree until smooth.
This is used to marinate meat.
