Chipotle Baked Fish
Chipotle chilies are dried, smoked jalapeños that are sold on their own or in a tomato-vinegar adobo sauce. To adjust the heat level in this recipe, reduce or increase the number of chilies and/or the amount of adobo to taste. Store the remaining chilies and sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
