Yield Makes 18 tamales

Number Of Ingredients 20

Tomatillo-Avocado Salsa
12 tomatillo, husked, rinsed well
1 small onion, quartered
6 large garlic cloves, peeled
2 to 3 serrano chilies, stemmed
2 ripe avocados, peeled, diced
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
Tamales
1 6-ounce package dried corn husks
1 pound large poblano chilies
2 cups Masa Harina (corn tortilla mix)
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
3 tablespoons sugar
2 1/4 teaspoons salt
1/2 cup canned low-salt chicken broth
5 cups frozen baby white corn kernels (about 25 ounces), thawed
3 cups (packed) coarsely grated sharp cheddar cheese
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Make Salsa:
  • Cook first 4 ingredients in heavy large skillet over high heat until charred in spots but still firm, turning occasionally, about 5 minutes. Transfer to processor; using on/off turns, chop coarsely. Add all remaining ingredients. Blend to coarse puree. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover; chill.)
  • Make Tamales:
  • Selecting the largest and cleanest husks, place half of husks in large bowl; fill bowl with warm water. Weigh husks down with plate; soak husks until soft, separating occasionally, about 2 hours. Form 36 ties by tearing several husks into 1/2-inch-wide strips.
  • Char chilies directly over gas flame or under broiler until blackened on all sides. Place in medium bowl; cover tightly with plastic. Let stand 10 minutes. Peel, seed, and chop chilies.
  • To make dough, blend Masa Harina, butter, sugar, and 1 teaspoon salt in processor until coarse meal forms. Add broth and blend in (mixture will be crumbly). Transfer masa mixture to large bowl. Blend 2 1/2 cups corn, 1 cup cheese, baking powder, pepper, and 1 1/4 teaspoons salt in processor until coarse puree forms. Stir puree, then 2 1/2 cups corn into masa.
  • For each tamale, open 1 large softened husk. Place 1/3 cup tamale dough in center of husk. Make depression in center of dough; fill with 1 tablespoon chilies, then 1 tablespoon cheese. Using moistened fingertips, press dough over filling to cover; shape filled dough into 3-inch-long log parallel to 1 long edge of husk. Fold 1 long side of husk over filling and roll up to enclose. Tie ends of filled husks tightly with husk strips.
  • Add enough water to large pot containing steamer insert to reach bottom of insert. Layer tamales in steamer insert. Bring water to boil; cover pot. Steam until tamales are firm, removing insert and adding boiling water to pot to maintain water level as needed, about 1 hour. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cool slightly. Refrigerate. Before serving, re-steam 45 minutes to heat through.) Serve tamales in husks with salsa.

CHIPOTLE GRILL INSPIRED TOMATILLO-GREEN CHILI SALSA



Chipotle Grill Inspired Tomatillo-Green Chili Salsa image

From the moment I first tasted this type at Chipotle Grill I was hooked on this tangy salsa. It's not always easy for me to get to the restaurant and to be honest, they don't give you a very generous portion with your chips. I looked all over the internet to find a recipe for this one, but couldn't find it so I made my own. I created this recipe based on the ingredients list on their website, plus a few of my own touches but the result is very very close. Adjust the hot peppers if more or less heat is desired.

Provided by gingerkitten D

Categories     Sauces

Time 15m

Yield 1 quart approximately, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 medium tomatoes, quartered
6 medium tomatillos (use 12 if they are very tiny)
1 small red onion, quartered (for a milder taste use a vidalia onion)
2 garlic cloves, pressed or minced
2 jalapeno peppers (seeded, roasted (or broiled)
2 limes, juice of
1/4-1/2 cup fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons ground cumin
1 pinch red pepper flakes (add more if more heat is desired)
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon TABASCO® brand Chipotle Pepper Sauce (more for a hotter salsa)
sea salt (to personal taste)
fresh ground pepper (to personal taste)

Steps:

  • Combine the above ingredients into a food processor. Pulse until desired consistency is reached. I gave it about 4 pulses to reach a small sized chunk, perfect for scooping with chips.

HATCH GREEN CHILI SALSA

I have plenty to cook with (for Chili Verde, green chili chicken enchiladas, etc.) and some to use for gift baskets during the holidays. This recipe is for one of the small batches I made (@15...

Provided by Jeanne Benavidez

Categories     Other Appetizers

Time 3h

Number Of Ingredients 10

15 lb fresh, hatch green chili peppers
4 lb tomatillos, husked and rinsed
2 large yellow or white onions, peeled and quartered
2 Tbsp minced garlic
1 c cilantro, fresh, chopped
1 Tbsp dried oregano
1 Tbsp dried cumin
1 Tbsp salt (i use garlic salt, but regular or kosher salt is fine)
2 can(s) chicken stock
1 c white vinegar

Steps:

  • 1. ROAST THE CHILI PEPPERS: I have a large heat-proof bowl with a tight fitting lid that I place the peppers in as they are finished roasting. I keep the lid laying on top of the bowl as I roast them; when the bowl gets full, I place the peppers into a heavy duty, black garbage bag. When all the roasting is complete and all peppers are in the big bag, just twist the top a little bit to keep the steam inside. Let the peppers sit and steam for a while (@20 - 30 minutes). Let them cool enough so you can handle them. You will need to use gloves (I buy those plain surgical gloves since they are a little thicker than food handling gloves). Remove the charred skin from the peppers along with the stem. If you want, you can remove the seeds also, I do not, but that is up to you.
  • 2. ROAST THE TOMATILLOS: You don't want to char the tomatillos black...simply blister to a light char as there is no need to remove the skin for processing. You can roast these in the oven while you are roasting your peppers.
  • 3. PROCESS THE SALSA: Place peppers and tomatillos into your food processor in batches and process to the desired consistency. Place processed veggies into a large stock pot (everything will eventually go into this pot for cooking).
  • 4. Place the onion in the processor and pulse until finely chopped. Add the onion to pepper mixture along with cilantro, oregano, cumin, salt, chicken stock and vinegar into the stock pot. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
  • 5. Heat the salsa mixture over medium low heat to a low simmer and simmer for about 20 minutes.
  • 6. Pour salsa into sterilized pint jars leaving ½ inch head space, cover with lid and ring. Process for 20 minutes in hot-water bath. Remove the processed jars from the canner and let cool overnight. Refer to your "hot-water-bath canning" procedures.

MUSHROOM SALSA CHILI



Mushroom Salsa Chili image

Green, sweet red and yellow peppers give this hearty chili a splash of color. I often fix it for my grandsons. Because they don't like spicy chili, I use mild salsa, but try it with a hotter variety if you prefer. -Richard Rundels, Waverly, Ohio

Chili Rubbed Salmon with Citrus Salsa - Slimmed image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 37m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon minced red onion
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
2 teaspoons honey
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more as needed
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for fish
1 grapefruit
2 blood oranges
1 jalapeno chile, stemmed, seeded, and minced
1/4 medium jicama, peeled and julienned, about 1 1/4 cups
1/2 cup fresh coriander leaves (cilantro), coarsely chopped
4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
8 corn tortillas, warmed (see Cook's Note)

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler to high. Soak onion in a bowl of very cold water.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the lime juice, honey, 2 teaspoons of oil, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
  • Trim the top and bottom off the grapefruit to expose the inner fruit. Following the curve of the fruit cut off the skin and white pith. Cut the segments free from the membrane and add to the dressing. Repeat with the oranges. (For help with this, see our Video demo of segmenting an orange.) Add the jalapeno, jicama, and fresh coriander to the citrus mixture. Drain the onions and stir to combine evenly.
  • Position a broiler pan about 6 inches from the broiler and preheat. Lightly brush the salmon with the olive oil. Sprinkle top of the fish with the chili powder and season with salt, to taste. Carefully lay fish, skin-side down, on the hot broiler pan. Broil the fish until just firm and brown, about 7 minutes. Remove pan from the broiler; set the salmon aside on the hot pan to finish cooking, about 5 minutes more.
  • Divide the fish among plates and serve with the salsa and tortillas.

Roasted Chicken Legs with Plum Chili Salsa image

Categories     Chicken     Fruit     Garlic     Herb     Pepper     Poultry     Roast     Plum     Mint     Summer     Gourmet

Yield Serves 4 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 17

For the marinade
4 large ripe purple or red plums (about 1 pound), chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced and mashed to a paste with 1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon Oriental sesame oil
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1/4 cup white-wine vinegar
3 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon minced seeded fresh jalapeño pepper (wear rubber gloves)
1 tablespoon minced peeled fresh gingerroot
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
8 whole chicken legs (about 4 1/2 pounds)
Plum Chili Salsa
For garnish
ripe plum wedges
lime wedges
whole fresh mint leaves

Steps:

  • Make the marinade:
  • In a food processor purée the plums, the garlic paste, the oil, the soy sauce, the orange juice, the vinegar, the sugar, the jalapeño, the gingerroot, the mustard, and black pepper to taste until the mixture is smooth. In a large saucepan bring the marinade to a boil, simmer it, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes, or until it is reduced to about 2 cups, and let it cool.
  • In a large shallow dish arrange the chicken, pricked in several places with a fork, in one layer, pour the marinade over it, reserving 1/4 cup for the salsa, and let the chicken marinate, covered and chilled, turning it once, for at least 1 hour or, preferably, overnight. Transfer the chicken to an oiled rack set over a foil-lined roasting pan, spoon the marinade over it, and roast the chicken in the upper third of a preheated 450°F. oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until it is cooked through.
  • Make the salsa while the chicken is roasting.
  • Arrange the chicken on a heated platter, garnish it with the plum wedges, the lime wedges, and the mint leaves, and serve it hot or at room temperature with the salsa.

Tips:

  • Use ripe tomatoes: The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter and more flavorful your salsa will be.
  • Roast your tomatoes: Roasting the tomatoes before making your salsa will give it a richer, smokier flavor.
  • Use a variety of chilies: Experiment with different types of chilies to create a salsa with the perfect amount of heat.
  • Don't be afraid to add other ingredients: Feel free to add other ingredients to your salsa, such as onions, garlic, cilantro, or lime juice.
  • Let your salsa rest: After you've made your salsa, let it rest for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together.

Conclusion:

With its smoky flavor, just the right amount of heat, and a hint of sweetness, this homemade chili salsa is the perfect addition to any Mexican dish. It's also a great way to use up ripe tomatoes from your garden. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy snack or appetizer, give this chili salsa a try. You won't be disappointed.
