- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
Directions
- Begin by wearing protective gloves to handle the habanero peppers, as they are extremely spicy and can irritate the skin. Cut off the stems and remove the seeds from the peppers.
- In a blender or food processor, combine the habanero peppers, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, black pepper, cumin powder, and paprika. Blend until smooth.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the habanero mixture. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
- Reduce the heat to low and slowly pour in the heavy cream, stirring consistently to combine with the habanero mixture. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, until the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Remove from heat and let the sauce cool for a few minutes before transferring it to a jar or container for storage.
- Serve the Habanero Cream Sauce as a topping for tacos, burgers, grilled chicken, or as a dipping sauce for vegetables. Enjoy the fiery heat and creamy flavor!
