BAJA FISH TACOS WITH CHIPOTLE AIOLI ROJO SALSA



Baja Fish Tacos with Chipotle Aioli Rojo Salsa image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 30

3 cups finely sliced green cabbage
1 cup finely sliced red cabbage
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons torn fresh cilantro leaves
1 lime
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon pureed chipotle in adobo
1 teaspoon dark agave syrup
1 pound boneless, skinless halibut fillets
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 cup all-purpose flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups lager beer, chilled
2 quarts canola oil
Twelve 5-inch fresh corn tortillas
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1 cup Rojo Salsa, recipe follows
Fresh Tortilla Chips, recipe follows
2 dried ancho chiles
2 dried guajillo chiles
2 dried pasilla chiles
4 quartered Roma tomatoes, stemmed
3 cloves garlic, peeled
1 jalapeno, seeded and stemmed
1 medium sweet onion, sliced
Kosher salt
Kosher salt
Canola oil, for frying
24 thick, good-quality corn tortillas

Steps:

  • For the cabbage slaw: Add the cabbage to a mixing bowl and season with salt. Toss with your hands and gently massage the cabbage to tenderize. Add the cilantro and juice from the lime.
  • For the smoky chipotle aioli: Combine the mayonnaise, chipotle and agave in a small bowl. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
  • For the Baja fish tacos: Carefully cut the halibut into 12 even-sized pieces (each about 4 inches long). Combine the cornstarch, chili powder and 3/4 cup flour in a large bowl and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Using a whisk, create a well in the center and slowly pour in the beer as you stir. Slowly incorporate the dry ingredients into the beer, forming a smooth batter.
  • Heat 3 inches oil in a heavy pot to 350 degrees F. Line a tray with paper towels.
  • Season the remaining 1/4 cup flour in a shallow dish with salt and pepper. Lightly dredge each piece of fish in it, shaking off any excess. Dip into the batter, then place in the hot oil. Cook, turning occasionally, until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on the paper towels and season with salt. Keep warm.
  • To assemble, place a large nonstick pan over medium heat. Place the tortillas in the pan 2 at a time and lightly drizzle with oil. Sprinkle with the Parmesan and cook until golden and the Parmesan is crispy and stuck to the tortilla, 30 to 40 seconds on each side.
  • To make each taco, smear a little chipotle aioli on the bottom of each tortilla. Top with some drained slaw, a piece of crispy fish and some Rojo Salsa. Serve with Tortilla Chips.
  • Remove the stems and seeds from the dried chiles, then tear them into large pieces. Toast the chiles in a large saute pan over medium-high heat until they start to change color, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and add hot water to just cover the chiles (about 2 cups). Place back on medium-low heat and simmer until soft and tender, 13 to 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
  • Preheat the broiler.
  • Place the tomatoes, garlic, jalapeno and onions on a baking tray, then broil until everything is charred well, turning once, 7 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a blender along with the chiles and their cooking liquid and pulse until smooth but still with a little texture. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Set aside until ready to serve.
  • Break down the salt into finer pieces in a mortar and pestle (so it sticks to the chips better).
  • Heat 5 to 6 inches oil to 350 degrees F in a heavy pot.
  • Stack up the tortillas and cut into 6 even pieces. Working in batches, sprinkle into the hot oil and cook, stirring so they don't stick together, until puffed and golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain and place on a rack over a tray. Season with salt immediately. Serve warm with salsa.

CHIPOTLE PORK LOIN WITH BLUEBERRY-KIWI SALSA



Chipotle Pork Loin with Blueberry-Kiwi Salsa image

Tart kiwi and sweet blueberries make a unique salsa to dress your basic pork loin. This is a leaner cut of pork, so be sure not to overcook it; you can test the meat by slicing it with a paring knife or using an instant-read thermometer, which should register 145ºF.

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 kiwis, peeled and diced
1 pint blueberries, chopped
1/2 cup cilantro leaves, chopped
1/4 cup minced red onion
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon paprika or chipotle chile powder
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
One (2-pound) center-cut pork loin
2 tablespoons grapeseed oil, plus more for the grill

Steps:

  • To grill the pork loin, preheat a grill over high heat, or to roast, preheat the oven to 400ºF.
  • Combine the kiwis, blueberries, cilantro onion, and vinegar in a large bowl. Add 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and toss well. Set the salsa aside.
  • Place the paprika or chipotle chile powder on a plate along with the turmeric, cumin, the remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt, and the black pepper. Roll the pork loin in the spice mixture to coat. Drizzle the pork with the oil.
  • To grill:
  • Grease the grill with grapeseed oil. Adjust the grill flame setting to medium to medium-low.
  • Place the loin on the grill and cook, turning often, until no longer translucent inside and cooked through, or until it registers 145ºF on an instant-read thermometer, 20-25 minutes. Let the loin rest for 5 minutes before slicing, then serve with the salsa.
  • To roast:
  • Place the pork in a 7-by-11-inch baking dish and roast on the lower rack, uncovered, for 35-40 minutes until cooked through and no longer pink in the center, and it registers 145ºF on an instant-read thermometer. Let the loin rest for 5 minutes before slicing, then serve with the salsa.

Tips:

  • Use ripe tomatoes: The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter and more flavorful your salsa will be.
  • Roast your tomatoes: Roasting tomatoes intensifies their flavor and gives them a smoky, caramelized taste.
  • Use fresh cilantro: Cilantro adds a bright, citrusy flavor to salsa. If you don't have fresh cilantro, you can use dried cilantro, but it won't be as flavorful.
  • Don't overcook your onions: Onions should be cooked until they are softened, but not browned. If you overcook them, they will become bitter.
  • Use a good quality chipotle pepper: Chipotle peppers are smoked jalapeño peppers. They add a smoky, spicy flavor to salsa. You can find chipotle peppers in cans or dried.
  • Adjust the heat level to your taste: If you like spicy salsa, add more chipotle peppers. If you prefer milder salsa, remove the seeds from the chipotle peppers before adding them to the salsa.
  • Let your salsa rest before serving: This allows the flavors to meld together and develop.

Conclusion:

Chipotle salsa is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used to add flavor to a variety of dishes. It's perfect for tacos, burritos, quesadillas, and nachos. It can also be used as a dipping sauce for chips or vegetables. If you're looking for a flavorful and easy-to-make salsa, give this chipotle salsa recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
