Red pepper aioli is one of my favorite sauces. It also is good as a condiment on sandwiches, especially blackened shrimp BLT sandwiches :-).
Start with a jar of roasted red peppers – you’ll need about half a cup of roasted red peppers that are drained and patted dry with a paper towel. If you don’t drain well enough and pat dry, the sauce will be watery.
Using a food processor, pulse 1 clove of garlic, then add (in this order) the red peppers, olive oil, mayo, a dash of Tabasco sauce and pepper (to taste). Pulse each time you add each ingredient, mixing well.

Just curious how long would this be good for? I’m wondering if I would need to cut the recipe in half? Any thoughts?
Hi Donna, I’ve never stored it longer than a day so I can’t say.
The original recipe was too strong in garlic for me. Tried it again but this time halved the garlic clove and sautéed it in the olive oil first. Removed the garlic from the oil and followed the instructions as before.
