Ingredients

  • 3 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup red onion, finely chopped
  • 1/4 tsp. coarse sea salt
  • 1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper
  • 1 large clove garlic, minced
  • 1 cup peaches, peeled and diced
  • 1 cup  tomato sauce
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • 1/4 cup pomegranate molasses
  • 3 Tbsp. freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 2 Tbsp. tamari or soy sauce
  • 2 Tbsp. tomato paste
  • 1–3 Tbsp. chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, chopped
  • 2 tsp. fresh sage, minced

Instructions

  • Warm the oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, salt, and cayenne pepper and sauté until the onion is soft, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Transfer to a blender. Add the peaches, tomato sauce, water, red wine vinegar, pomegranate molasses, lime juice, tamari or soy sauce, tomato paste, and chipotle peppers and process until smooth.
  • Pour the sauce back into the saucepan and simmer over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until thick, about 20 minutes. Stir in the sage and simmer for 1 to 2 more minutes. Taste and season with more salt, if desired. Use immediately or store in a tightly sealed jar in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

Makes about 2 1/2 cups
