Meat and Seafood

• Use sweet chilli sauce as a marinade for chicken, pork or beef before barbecuing. Drizzle the sauce over fish tacos. Dip chicken nuggets into the sauce for a hot and spicy treat. Add the sauce to meatloaf to give the traditional entree a kick. Pour it over chicken stir fry or dip chilled shrimp into the sauce for a new twist on standard shrimp cocktail.

Breads

• Sweet chili sauce has a strong flavor that can overwhelm most bread types. Moderate to strong flavored breads are well-suited to hold their own against the strong sauce. Drizzle the sauce over cornmeal muffins or multigrain bread for a quick snack. Smear the sauce over an onion bagel or whole wheat pita for a great beginning to a spicy sandwich. Dip garlic breadsticks in the sauce for a picante appetizer.

Fruits

• Several fruits pair well with sweet chili sauce. Prepare snacks and appetizers from fruits with strong flavors that won't get lost in the spicy sauce. For example, dip pineapple spears in sweet chilli sauce for a refreshingly, unusual dessert. Drizzle orange slices with the sauce for a juicy appetizer. Or, toss the condiment with mango and papaya balls for a hot 'n spicy fruit salad.

Vegetables

• A splash of sweet chili sauce adds color and flavor to vegetables. Dip slices of bell pepper into the sauce or add it to Southwest-style corn and black bean salads. Dip hot French fries or cold carrot sticks into a bowl of the condiment or mix it into normally mild tomato soup. Stir fry tofu and mixed vegetables with the sauce and serve over rice for a healthy supper.
