Ingredients
3/4 cup honey
1/2 cup chopped pitted dried prunes
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1/4 cup fresh lime juice

Preparation
Step 1
Combine the honey, prunes, half of the orange juice, half of the lime juice, and the chiles in a small heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the chiles are soft. Let the sauce cool slightly.

Transfer the sauce to a blender and puree until smooth. Stir in the remaining orange and lime juices. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (The sauce can be made 2 days ahead. Cool, then cover and keep refrigerated.)
