This smoked paprika aioli is made with mayonnaise, garlic, smoked hot paprika and cilantro. It's spicy, smoky, tangy, garlicky and has a nice freshness from the herb.

Ingredient note:

Aioli recipes often call for lemon juice but I find that that's not needed in this aioli. The mayonnaise has a nice tanginess and the cilantro adds a mild lemon flavor so that no citrus juice is needed.

How to use it:

This aioli is the perfect dipping sauce for anything that typically needs a flavor boost, like fried fish, chicken nuggets or grilled shrimp.

How long does it keep?

Because of the fresh herb I recommend to consume this aioli within 1 day. Keep it refrigerated in an airtight container until you're ready to serve it.
