1 tablespoon of vinegar (white or apple cider)
1 tablespoon of olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon of brown sugar (optional for balancing out the tanginess)
Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)
Directions:
In a small bowl, combine the chili powder, salt, lemon juice, vinegar, and olive oil.
Add in the minced garlic and brown sugar (if using). Stir well to combine the flavors.
Taste the mixture and adjust the salt or chili powder depending on your preferred spice level.
Let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
For extra flavor, you can refrigerate the sauce for a couple of hours before serving. This will deepen the taste and make the spices more intense.

Garnish with fresh cilantro to add a burst of color and freshness.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. This recipe often tastes even better after sitting for a day or two as the flavors continue to develop.
