RED-RIBBON ROASTED SALSA



Red-Ribbon Roasted Salsa image

This recipe originated from a recipe that was supposed to duplicate that of my favorite Mexican restaurant. I've heavily modified the original recipe and like this variation SO much more! It's relatively easy. This makes a medium-hot salsa. I've named it 'Red-Ribbon' because it took second place at my company salsa competition last Cinco de Mayo (lost first in a tie-breaker!).

Categories     Appetizers and Snacks     Dips and Spreads Recipes     Salsa Recipes     Tomato Salsa Recipes

Time 3h

Yield 12

10 dried chipotle peppers
12 roma (plum) tomatoes
¼ yellow onion, coarsely chopped
2 cloves garlic, or more to taste
2 tablespoons white vinegar
2 teaspoons salt
1 pinch ground black pepper, or to taste
1 lime, juiced, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Fill a saucepan with water, stir in dried chipotle peppers, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until peppers are soft, about 30 minutes. Drain and let cool. When peppers are cool, remove stems, cut open peppers, and remove seeds. Set peppers aside.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Grill tomatoes on hot grate until skin blackens and begins to peel, turning tomatoes often to blacken all sides, about 10 minutes. Set grilled tomatoes aside to cool.
  • Place grilled tomatoes, chipotle peppers, yellow onion, white vinegar, salt, black pepper, and lime juice into a food processor; pulse a few times, then process until almost pureed.
  • Refrigerate until flavors have blended, at least 2 hours to overnight.

ROASTED FISH WITH LEEKS AND OLIVE SALSA VERDE



Roasted Fish With Leeks and Olive Salsa Verde image

Leeks show their gentle side in this speedy weeknight fish recipe. A lemony olive salsa verde adds brightness to the dish, while red-pepper flakes bring some heat. Serve this with rice, polenta or crusty bread to soak up the tangy-sweet juices. For a richer, more full-flavored variation, try salmon or tuna fillets instead of milder white fish.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     easy, weekday, seafood, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 thick fillets white fish, such as cod or halibut (about 1 1/2 pounds total)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 medium leeks, trimmed, white and light green parts halved lengthwise and rinsed well
Extra-virgin olive oil
1 lemon
1/2 cup coarsely chopped pitted Castelvetrano olives
1/2 cup chopped cilantro leaves and tender stems
1 garlic clove, finely grated, minced or pushed through a garlic press
Large pinch of red-pepper flakes, or to taste
Fine sea or table salt
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. Season fish all over with salt and pepper, and set aside while you prepare the leeks.
  • Cut the leeks into matchsticks: Place a leek half, flat side down, on a cutting board and cut it in half crosswise. Then slice the pieces lengthwise into thin (1/4-inch-thick) matchsticks. Repeat with remaining leeks.
  • Spread leeks out on a rimmed baking sheet. Lightly drizzle them with oil and a pinch of salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Push aside the leeks to create 4 spaces in the center of the sheet pan just large enough for the fish fillets, then place the fillets in those cleared spaces. (Avoid putting the fish on top of the leeks, which won't cook as well if they're covered.)
  • Drizzle fish with oil. Roast until the fish is opaque and just cooked through but not yet flaky, about 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the thickness of fish. The leeks surrounding the fish will be soft and silky, while those at the edges of the pan may turn delightfully brown and crisp in spots. If the fish is done but you think the leeks need a little more time, transfer the fish to a serving platter, tent with foil to keep warm, and continue to cook the leeks for another few minutes.
  • While the fish is in the oven, make the salsa verde: Using a fine rasp grater, grate 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest into a small bowl. Halve the lemon and squeeze in 1 tablespoon juice.
  • Stir in olives, cilantro, garlic, red-pepper flakes and a pinch of salt. Slowly drizzle in oil, stirring to combine. Taste and add more salt, red-pepper or another squeeze of lemon, if needed.
  • Place fish on plates and surround with leeks. Top with olive salsa verde.

Tips:

  • To ensure your roasted red peppers have a smoky flavor, char them over an open flame before peeling and dicing.
  • Use a variety of olives for a more complex flavor profile. Kalamata, Niçoise, and Castelvetrano olives are all great options.
  • If you don't have time to roast your own red peppers, you can use jarred roasted red peppers instead. Just be sure to drain them well before using.
  • Feel free to adjust the amount of garlic and chili peppers to your own taste preferences.
  • Serve the salsa immediately or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Conclusion:

Roasted red pepper and olive salsa is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used to add flavor to a variety of dishes. It's perfect for serving with grilled meats, fish, or vegetables, or as a dip for chips or crackers. With its smoky, savory, and slightly spicy flavor, this salsa is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
