CHILEAN CABBAGE AND AVOCADO SLAW



Chilean Cabbage and Avocado Slaw image

Coleslaw meets guacamole here in this utterly simple mix of shredded cabbage, salt, lemon, and puréed avocado. The chef Iliana de la Vega, who was born in Oaxaca, Mexico, served it at a delicious Latin-themed lunch she prepared at the "Healthy Kitchens, Healthy Lives" conference this year at the Culinary Institute of America in Napa Valley. I couldn't get enough of it. I sat with Iliana at the lunch and asked her about the salad. "Just salt the cabbage, let it sit for a while, then add lots of lemon juice and the mashed avocado," she said. That really is all there is to it. Shred the cabbage thin and for best results let it sit, after salting generously, for an hour or more, to tenderize it and draw out strong-tasting juices.

Time 15m

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 large cabbage, cored and finely shredded (about 1 pound cabbage, which produces 5 cups shredded cabbage)
Salt to taste
4 to 5 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (more to taste)
1 large or 1 1/2 medium-size ripe avocados
Freshly ground pepper (optional)

Steps:

  • Place shredded cabbage in a large bowl or colander and salt generously. Tossand rub the salt into cabbage with your hands. Let sit for 1 hour or longer (refrigerate if longer than 1 hour). If cabbage tastes too salty, rinse, then squeeze out excess moisture and transfer to a dry bowl.
  • Toss cabbage with half the lemon juice.
  • Mash avocados in a mortar and pestle, or in a bowl using a fork, potato masher or a whisk. Add salt to taste and remaining lemon juice and mix until smooth. Scrape into the bowl with cabbage and stir together until shredded cabbage is thoroughly coated with mashed avocado. Taste and adjust salt. Add pepper if desired. If mixture isn't creamy, add more avocado.

Grilled Mahi Mahi Taco, Red Cabbage Slaw, Tomato Avocado Salsa, image

Grilled Mahi Mahi Tacos With Red Cabbage Slaw, Tomato And Avocado Salsa And Pineapple Hot Sauce is the whole name for this lovely recipe. Created by Bobby Flay for a wedding on FoodNetwork, and it was a big hit with all the guests at the wedding. I wanted to share this lovely recipe with you all. It took me about 3 hrs. to make this dish, but it is well worth it! Be careful when making the Charred Pineapple-Habanero Hot Sauce using the the habanero chiles, as it is HOT with 2! I would suggest only 1 if you don't like real hot and spicy.

Provided by davidv

Number Of Ingredients 29

Steak:
1 2 lb-2-1/2 lb flank steak
2 cloves of garlic
2/3 cup fresh cilantro leaves
Juice of 2 limes
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/8 tsp ground black pepper
1 jalapeño, seeded and quartered
1 tsp chili powder
Chipotle Slaw:
1 cup sour cream
2 Tbsp milk
2 tsp chipotle pepper in adobo (or more, to taste), chopped
1/2 Tbsp white vinegar
6 cups shredded cabbage
Avocado Salsa:
3 avocados, diced
1/3 cup red onion, minced
Juice of 4 limes
1/2 of a large jalapeño, seeded and minced
1 tsp garlic, minced
1/3 fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 plum tomato, seeded and diced
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/8 tsp ground black pepper
You will also need:
1 (10-12) package of 8-inch soft taco shells

Steps:

  • To prepare the steak, first make a marinade with the garlic, cilantro, lime juice, olive oil, salt, pepper, jalapeño, and chili powder. Combine the ingredients in the bowl of a food processor and process until finely minced. Place the flank steak in a large zip-top plastic bag, pour in the marinade, and squeeze out any excess air before sealing. Allow the steak to marinate in the refrigerator for at least two hours; do not exceed 8 hours. To prepare the slaw, combine the sour cream, milk, chipotle pepper, and vinegar in a large bowl and whisk until combined. Add the cabbage and stir until it's completely coated with dressing. To prepare the salsa, combine all the ingredients in a medium-sized bowl; toss until combined. (If kept refrigerated, this can be made up to 2 hours prior to serving.) To make the tacos, preheat the grill and set the temperature to medium-high. Grill the steak for 8 minutes on each side, or until your desired degree of doneness. Let it rest for 10 minutes before cutting, diagonally across the grain, into thin slices. Place 4-5 slices of steak in a taco shell, top with approximately a quarter cup of salsa and the same amount of slaw. Fold up the shell and enjoy!

1/4 head Napa cabbage, thinly sliced (about 3 cups)
1/2 sweet onion, thinly sliced (about 1 cup)
1 bunch fresh cilantro, leavesfinely chopped
1 lime, juiced
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
Salt and pepper
1 dried ancho chile and 1 dried pasilla chile, seeded, stemmed, and soaked in warm water for at
least 30 minutes, or 4 tablespoons good-quality ground chile powder
1/2 to 1 minced fresh jalapeno chile pepper
1/4 cup minced onion
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 chipotle chile in adobo sauce
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1/4 cup hearty red wine (like Zinfindel or Cabernet Sauvignon), plus more if needed
2 pounds freshly ground beef (*see cook's note below)
6 tablespoons Chili Rojo, recipe follows
Salt and pepper
2 ripe avocados, peeled and pitted
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 jalapeno chile pepper, finely minced, optional
1/4 cup minced red bell pepper
1 lime, zested
1 lime, juiced
1 large ripe tomato or 2 Roma tomatoes, diced
Salt and pepper
6 (1-ounce) slices sharp Cheddar
6 good-quality soft hamburger buns
1/3 cup of remaining Chili Rojo, recipe follows, mixed with 1/2 cup ketchup

Steps:

  • To make the slaw: mix all the slaw ingredients together. Set aside for at least 30 minutes to let flavors meld.
  • Prepare charcoal grill for medium-hot direct-heat cooking.
  • To make the Chili Rojo: add all chili ingredients, except extra wine, to a blender or food processor. Puree thoroughly, using extra wine if necessary to make a thick, smooth sauce.
  • To make the burger patties: take 6 tablespoons ground beef and mix with 6 tablespoons Chile Rojo. Make 6 equal hand-formed patties with the remaining ground beef. Place 2 tablespoons of the chile mixture onto the center of each patty. Carefully enclose each patty around the chile mixture to form a ball. Carefully flatten each ball back into a thick patty, keeping the chile mixture inside. Season the patties liberally with salt and pepper.
  • To make the Crema: mash the avocados in a food processor or with a potato masher. Add the rest of the ingredients and fold gently until thoroughly mixed.
  • When the grill is hot, oil the grill rack and cook the burgers over a medium-high flame until done, about 3 minutes per side for medium rare. If the exterior of the patties begins to burn, move them to a cooler side of the grill until the centers have had a chance to cook. Add a slice of cheese to each patty about 1 minute before they are done. Let patties rest off the heat for 1 or 2 minutes after cooking, and meanwhile toast the buns on a cooler side of the grill.
  • To assemble the burgers: spread each bun bottom with a layer of Avocado Crema. Add about 1/3 cup slaw, a patty with melted cheese, then a tablespoon of chili ketchup, and finally the bun top.

GRILLED SCALLOPS TACOS AND CABBAGE SLAW WITH SPICY AVOCADO SAUCE



Grilled Scallops Tacos and Cabbage Slaw With Spicy Avocado Sauce image

This is surprisingly fast to make and since scallops are sliced 1/2 to 1/3 horizontally (depending on size), they grill up very quickly on the pan. If scallops are large, then 1 taco equals 1 large scallop. But, if you are using medium or smaller scallops, you may need to use more scallops per taco. I love the creaminess of this avocado sauce which goes really well with other grilled fish or seafood items too.

Number Of Ingredients 22

~~ For the honey lime tequila shrimp tacos ~~
2 pounds (454 g) raw shrimps, peeled and deveined
1 teaspoon coarse sea salt
2 tablespoons raw honey
juice of 2 limes + 1 lime
1/2 cup tequila
1 medium onion, finely minced
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon ground chipotle (optional)
2 avocados, diced
1/2 head of red cabbage, thinly sliced
~~ For the slaw dressing ~~
1/4 cup (60 ml) freshly squeezed lime juice [about 2-3 limes]
1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard
sea salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup light, neutral oil, such as grapeseed
~~ For the chipotle crema ~~
1 cup (250 ml) sour cream or créme fraîche [low fat can be used]
1 to 2 pieces of chipotle chiles in adobo sauce [canned]
~~ For assembly ~~
12 - 15 homemade or store-bought good quality yellow or white corn tortilla
a handful of cilantro, finely chopped

Steps:

  • 1. Wash, peel, devein, and dry raw shrimps. Season with salt. 2. In a bowl, combine honey, lime juice, tequila, onion, cumin, and chipotle powder (if using). Mix well and toss shrimps in marinade. Chill 4 hours up to 12 hours in the refrigerator. 3. Heat grill to 400 F (205 C). Make sure to oil the grilles well. Skewer shrimps in soaked wooden sticks (this will make it easier to handle on a grill). Grill shrimps until bright or just opaque, about 2 minutes each side. Flip the shrimp skewers and cook for another 2 minutes or until they turn bright orange. Alternatively, you can also pan fry the shrimps. Set cooked shrimps aside. 4. Dice the avocados and squeeze juice from the remaining 1 lime. Thinly slice the red cabbage using a sharp knife or a mandolin. To make the dressing for the red cabbage slaw, put the lime juice, Dijon mustard, sea salt, pepper and oil in a jar or bowl. Whisk vigourously until it emulsifies. Toss the red cabbage with the lime vinaigrette. Set aside. 5. Meanwhile, to make the chipotle crema, place the chipotles in the bowl of the food processor and give it a good whirl until it is smooth. Stir in the sour cream or créme fraîche, mixing well until the colour is even. Transfer chipotle crema in a squeeze bottle. 6. To assemble the tacos, heat tortilla in a dry pan, about 1 minute per side or until lightly browned or charred. Wrap tortilla in a cloth to prevent from drying out. Set aside, covered. 7. Place some diced avocados in the middle of the tortilla, followed by the red cabbage slaw. Remove skewers from shrimps and pile on the taco. Drizzle with the chipotle crema and garnish with cilantro. Serve immediately.
