Asian Peanut Sauce

This is one of Devin's favorite go-to sauces that she uses in all of her Asian recipes. Though it's a bit high in fat on its own, when paired with food, it's quite lean compared to similar versions and much more natural than any she's found.
Servings: 2 servings (1/4 cup total, 2 tablespoons each)

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon all-natural, reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons coconut sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili-infused extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt free Szechuan Seasoning (Devin used Spice Hunter's salt free Szechuan Seasoning)
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon all-natural creamy peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar

Method
 

  1. In a small mixing bowl, mix the soy sauce and coconut sugar. Add the chili oil and Szechuan Seasoning and mix until combined.
  2. Using a small whisk, whisk in the peanut butter until smooth. Then whisk in the rice vinegar until smooth. Add immediately to your favorite dish or refrigerate it in a re-sealable container for up to 5 days.
