Mango Habanero Sauce – Spend With Pennies

Mango habanero is sweet and spicy – perfect for chicken, wings, or shrimp!

Sweet mangoes are simmered with habanero peppers and a little vinegar to create a one of a kind sweet-hot sauce.

Homemade Hot Sauce

  • If you love the mango habanero sauce at Buffalo Wild Wings or Dominos, now you can make it at home.
  • Just a handful of ingredients are all you need.
  • It’s so versatile! Use it with grilled meats, seafood, or even veggie side dishes to add a burst of flavor to any meal.

Ingredients for Mango Habanero Sauce

Habanero Peppers – Habanero peppers are small peppers and they are much hotter than jalapeno peppers so use caution when handling them. Choose whole peppers in yellow, orange, or red – red being the hottest. Remove the membrane and seeds to tame the heat slightly, although they’ll still be spicy!

Mango – Fresh or frozen mango chunks work in this recipe. Be sure fresh mangos are sweet and ripe.

Base – Honey, vinegar, and lime juice help balance the habaneros and mango and thicken the sauce. Other sweeteners like maple syrup or brown sugar are acceptable, and red wine vinegar can be switched out for the apple cider variety. Lemon juice can be used if lime juice isn’t available.

Variations – Kick up the heat and add a dash or two of Tabasco or some red pepper flakes.

Habanero peppers contain oils that are very hot and can burn your skin or eyes, so use caution when working with them. I highly recommend wearing gloves when working with peppers (including jalapeno peppers) as the oils can be difficult to remove. Be mindful that the oils can also transfer to cutting boards, so use lots of hot, soapy water or wash them in the dishwasher.
