Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h40m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 medium jalapenos, finely diced
2 extra-large tomatoes, finely diced
1 large red onion, finely diced
Juice of 2 medium limes
2 ounces chopped fresh cilantro
15 poblano peppers
1 medium onion, diced
2 ounces plus 1/2 cup unsalted butter
8 cloves garlic, minced
One 48-ounce can chicken stock
4 sprigs fresh cilantro, chopped
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon taco seasoning
1 teaspoon salt and pepper
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
One 8-ounce spiny Florida lobster tail, shelled
1/2 cup white wine
Three 6-inch corn tortillas
4 ounces shredded Cheddar-jack cheese
3 large tomatoes, diced into 1/2-inch cubes
Lemon wedge and fresh cilantro sprig, for serving

Steps:

  • For the pico de gallo: Mix jalapenos, tomatoes and onions in a bowl. Stir in lime juice and cilantro. Chill for 30 minutes.
  • For the roasted poblano sauce: Roast poblanos on a char-broiler until skin is black on all sides. Transfer to a pan and cover with plastic wrap for 15 minutes to further sweat the poblanos. Under running water, peel and clean poblanos and remove all seeds and stems.
  • Saute onion in 2 ounces butter until it starts to caramelize, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 2 to 3 more minutes. Add a cup of chicken stock to cool. Remove mixture to a blender and puree, then transfer to a saucepot. Add poblanos to blender in batches and puree, adding more chicken stock as needed to loosen, then combine with ingredients in the pot. Add cilantro, cumin, taco seasoning, salt and pepper to pot and bring to boil. Simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. Make a roux by adding flour to remaining 1/2 cup butter in a saute pan and cooking slowly to a golden hue, about 10 minutes. Thicken sauce to desired thickness by adding roux to pot.
  • For the enchiladas: Preheat oven to 420 degrees F.
  • Cut lobster into medium bite-sized pieces and par-cook in white wine in a pan 1 to 2 minutes. Drain and divide into 3 portions. Cover a sizzle plate with 1 cup poblano sauce (save remainder for another use). Place corn tortillas on a hot grill or saute pan and warm about 10 seconds per side to soften, then remove. Form tortillas into 3 enchiladas with lobster and some shredded cheese. Place on sizzle plate and top with more cheese and 1/4 cup tomatoes. Bake, 5 minutes. Transfer enchiladas to a plate with a spatula, then push cooked sauce on top of enchiladas. Add a ramekin of pico de gallo on the side (save remainder for another use), a lemon wedge and a sprig of cilantro and serve.

CORN AND FIRE-ROASTED POBLANO SALAD WITH CILANTRO



Corn and Fire-Roasted Poblano Salad With Cilantro image

This side dish was a hit served with enchiladas and I bet it would be good alongside quesadillas too. Please adjust the amount of poblanos to taste. I would suggest only using fresh corn to get the best flavor from this salad. From Everyday Greens a cookbook from a vegetarian restaurant in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Categories     Corn

Time 40m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 medium red onion, diced, about 1/2 cup
1 tablespoon champagne vinegar or 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 ears corn, shaved, about 4 cups kernels
salt
1/4 cup water
1/2 cup peeled peeled seeded and diced roasted poblano chile (about 2-3 directions for roasting follow)
4 teaspoons fresh lime juice
cayenne pepper
3 tablespoons coarsely chopped cilantro

Steps:

  • Roasted Poblanos: Rub the chilies lightly with oil and place them on a stovetop grill or directly over an open flame. Grill over medium-high heat and turn, using metal tongs until the skins are evenly blistered and charred. Remove from the heat, transfer to a bowl, and cover with a plate or a lid; they'll steam as they cool. Loosen and peel the skins from the chilies. Bits of charred skin are ok. You can dip your fingers in water, but don't be tempted to dip the chilies in water or peel them under the running faucet-you'll lose their delicious flavor.
  • Salad: Bring a small pot of water to a boil and drop in the onions for 20 seconds. Drain and toss with the vinegar.
  • Heat the oil in a large sauté pan. Add the corn, 1/4 teaspoons salt, and sauté over medium heat for about 1 minute. Add the water, lower the heat, and cover the pan. Simmer covered, until the corn is tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Transfer to a bowl and toss with the chilies, onions, lime juice, 1/4 teaspoons salt, and a pinch of cayenne. Set aside to cool.
  • Just before serving, add the cilantro and season to taste with salt and cayenne.
  • Tip: To make this salad even easier, you can prepare the separate elements ahead of time and combine them at the last minute. The poblano chilies keep well for several days in the refrigerator or can be frozen and defrosted just before serving.

Categories     Sauces

Time 20m

Yield 1 1/2 cups, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 poblano peppers, roasted, peeled and seeded
1/4 cup red onion, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
3/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup spinach leaves
1/4 cup cilantro leaf
2 teaspoons honey
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a blender or food processor, combine the poblanos, onion and lime juice and blend until smooth.
  • While the blender is running, add the oil slowly until emulsified.
  • Add the spinach and cilantro and blend until smooth.
  • Add the honey and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Serve at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Choose the right poblano peppers: Look for poblano peppers that are dark green, firm, and have smooth skin. Avoid peppers that are wrinkled or have blemishes.
  • Roast the poblano peppers properly: Roasting the poblano peppers brings out their smoky flavor. Roast them directly over a gas burner or in a preheated oven until the skin is blackened and blistered.
  • Remove the skin from the poblano peppers: Once the poblano peppers are roasted, let them cool slightly before peeling off the skin. The skin should come off easily.
  • Use fresh cilantro: Fresh cilantro adds a bright, citrusy flavor to the sauce. If you don't have fresh cilantro, you can use dried cilantro, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Adjust the heat level to your liking: If you like spicy food, you can add more jalapeño peppers to the sauce. If you prefer a milder sauce, you can omit the jalapeño peppers or use fewer of them.

Conclusion:

This roasted poblano cilantro sauce is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used on a variety of dishes. It is perfect for topping tacos, burritos, enchiladas, and quesadillas. It can also be used as a dipping sauce for chips or vegetables. The sauce is easy to make and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week.
