Green Chile Aioli Recipe
Green Chili Aioli takes only minutes to blend & quickly becomes a spicy, creamy, flavorful spread or dip you can enjoy with fries, rings, or on a sandwich.
Servings: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 2 egg yolks
- 1 tablespoon lime juice about a half to one lime
- 1 teaspoon garlic finely minced (about 2-3 cloves)
- ¼ teaspoon sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2-4 tablespoons roasted green chile minced
- ¾ cup vegetable oil
Instructions
- Place 2 egg yolks, 1 tablespoon lime juice, 1 teaspoon garlic, ¼ teaspoon sugar, ½ teaspoon salt, and 2-4 tablespoons roasted green chile in food processor. Pulse to combine and emulsify. Alternatively, you can process in a bowl or wide mouth mason jar using an immersion blender.
- Turn processor or immersion blender on and slowly pour in ¾ cup vegetable oil in a slow steady stream. Process until aioli thickens, about a minute. Turn processor off, scrap sides, process again until combined.
- Serve immediately or store in air tight container in refrigerator until ready to use, up to a week. Makes approximately one cup.

Recipe tips:
- Instead of a food processor, you can also make this recipe using an immersion blender and a flat bottomed bowl or a wide mouthed mason jar.
- You can use drained canned green chile or freshly roasted (my preference).
- Hatch green chile is the absolute best and it is available only once a year towards the end of summer. If your local farmers market or Whole Foods is selling it, stock up and buy it in bulk.
- To freeze large amounts of green chile, line a large tray with parchment paper. Push green chile into a small bowl or measuring cup, squeeze out any air to compact it, then invert onto lined tray. Set tray in freezer and once mounds have frozen solid, you can transfer them to a resealable plastic storage bag for longer term freezer storage.
