Spicy Peanut Dressing

I first shared this recipe in my newsletter from August of this year.  It's the dressing I use on my kale salad with chicken, but it's also great as a dipping sauce among other things.  Done worry about the Thai chili, they can be difficult to find, so you can use 1/8 teaspoon of any hot pepper, or other chili, you'll want to have a little heat, but you control the temperature.  Enjoy it however you will!

1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter

1/4 cup peanut oil (olive oil also works fine)

1/4 cup rice wine vinegar

2 tablespoons Hoisin Sauce

1/2 teaspoon salt

8 basil leaves

1 Thai chili 

1/2 teaspoon of cayenne

Place all ingredients in the bowl of a food processor and blend until creamy and emulsified.
