CielitoMio delicious salsas!
I partnered with Cielito MIO Gourmet Salsa to try out their delicious dried chiles salsas. I tasted the mild and the hot salsas-- ohhhhhh myyyy these were tasty!
The salsas are handcrafted in small batches and the quality definitely comes through. They both have an incredibly deep flavor that I couldn’t get enough of. I created a spicy chicken sandwich with Cielito MIO Aioli. This crispy chicken sandwich was so delicious it felt like a cheat! (Printable recipe at the end of the text.)
The creator of these salsas grew up eating traditional Mexican food cooked by her grandmother, mother, and husband's family. She wanted to create something tasty that would connect her back to her roots through her kitchen. She uses a variety of dried peppers to achieve a deep, rich flavor that tastes like a lotta time, energy, and LOVE have been put into them. They seriously make my mouth water right away when I open the jar and get the first scent.
**Cielito MIO needs to be mixed well before use each time. Additionally, you can add a few drops of oil if the product seems to need it.**
The mild salsa isn't spicy at all, but it's far from lacking flavor. I think it's absolutely perfect for the individuals that always drool over the spicy dishes they see, but can't quite handle the heat. (I know many get heartburn, stomach aches, simply don't like the mouthfeel, etc.)
Then there's the spicy one for my folks that like to live on the edge! It has a nice heat to it, definitely enough to bring on a little sweat, all while maintaining the same rich flavor the mild one has. I am seriously OBSESSED with this one you guys!
Cielito MIO was generous enough to offer y'all 15% if you’d like to give these tasty salsas a try. (And I highly recommend you do 🤤) Simply enter code ‘KETO2020’ at checkout and you can feel good about supporting a small business too! Order yours HERE!

Crispy Spicy Chicken Sandwich w/ Cielito MIO Aioli
Yield: 4 Burgers
Ingredients:
Chicken Patties
- 1 lb ground chicken
- 1 Tbs Cielito Mio Dried Chiles Salsa
- 1/2-3/4 cup pork rind crumbs (for breading)
Cielito MIO Aioli
- 1/2 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 Tbs Cielito MIO
Instructions:
How to cook Crispy Spicy Chicken Sandwich w/ Cielito MIO Aioli
- Mix together ground chicken and Cielito MIO salsa. (I prefer the hot to give my sandwich a little kick!)
- Divide the chicken mixture into four and form four round patties.
- Gently press the chicken patties one at a time into the pork rind crumbs to evenly coat them, trying to get all sides and let the patties set in the fridge for about 5 minutes. (I start with 1/2 cup and add more pork rind crumbs if needed.)
- Heat oil in a pan and cook the patties 4-5 minutes each side. (Make sure your oil is HOT before you put the patties in so the pork rind crumbs don't absorb excess oil. Your chicken will come out crispier this way!!!)
- While you're waiting to flip your patties you can mix up the aioli. You can either make your own mayo or you use a store-bought one. Simply mix the mayo with the Cielito MIO salsa and set aside until the patties are done cooking.
Notes:
Once the patties are fully cooked you can either wrap the chicken sammies in lettuce, pop them into a low carb wrap, or simply top with the aioli and enjoy that crispy patty!
