Categories     Side Dish     Sauces and Condiments Recipes     Relish Recipes

Time 1h15m

Yield 80

Number Of Ingredients 6

24 red bell peppers - halved, seeded, and thinly sliced
7 onions, halved and thinly sliced
3 cups white sugar
3 cups vinegar
3 tablespoons salt
10 half-pint canning jars with lids and rings

Steps:

  • Combine red bell peppers, onions, sugar, vinegar, and salt in a large pot; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes.
  • Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack relish into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/2 inch of the top. Run a knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
  • Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary to bring the water level to at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for 15 minutes.
  • Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.

This recipe is great on anything that you would put relish on. It's great on brats, hotdogs, and hamburgers. The ingredients are very simple and consist of bell peppers and onions. Great for using up all those end of the season peppers. If you like it hot, you can add jalapeno peppers for a little spice.

GRILLED PORK CHOPS WITH ONION AND BELL PEPPER RELISH



Grilled Pork Chops with Onion and Bell Pepper Relish image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 pounds sweet red onion, peeled and thinly sliced
1 red bell pepper, ribs and seeds removed, thinly sliced
1 green bell pepper, ribs and seeds removed, thinly sliced
1 yellow bell pepper, ribs and seeds removed, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon grapeseed oil
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 cup ruby port wine
4 (8-ounce) bone-in pork loin chops, about 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick, trimmed
Canola oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • To make the relish: In a straight-sided skillet, saute the onions and bell peppers in the oil until onions are translucent. Add the vinegar, sugar, and port wine, and cook at a very low heat until liquid evaporates. Onions and peppers should still be a little firm to the bite but sweet and caramelized. Set aside.
  • To cook the pork: Prepare the grill for grilling chops: high heat on left side, medium heat on right side. Drizzle the chops with canola oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the chops on the grill and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, using a inverted baking pan to keep chops covered during cooking. Move the chops to the right side of the grill and continue cooking over medium heat. Cook 4 minutes and then turn chops over to finish cooking, keeping covered for an additional 4 minutes. Cook to 150 degrees F internal temperature.
  • Serve with the relish.

LATIN BURGERS WITH CARAMELIZED ONION AND JALAPENO RELISH AND RED PEPPER MAYONNAISE



Latin Burgers with Caramelized Onion and Jalapeno Relish and Red Pepper Mayonnaise image

Provided by Ingrid Hoffmann

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

3/4 pound ground sirloin
3/4 pound ground chuck
1/2 pound raw chorizo, casings removed and crumbled
1 tablespoon adobo seasoning
1 large onion, grated
1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 large yellow onions, finely sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup bottled and sliced jalapeno chiles, drained
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
2 medium jarred roasted red bell peppers, drained
3/4 cup mayonnaise
6 slices Oaxaca cheese or mozzarella
6 hamburger rolls

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, mix thoroughly by hand the ground beef, the chorizo, the adobo seasoning, the grated onion and the bread crumbs. Form the burgers into 6 patties without pressing them too much or they can become tough. Line a baking pan with waxed paper and put the burgers side-by-side in a single layer. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This will help the burgers hold together. If you make more than you need just separate with waxed paper and insert into a storage freezer bag for future use.;
  • Heat the olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onions and season with salt and pepper. Add the jalapeno chiles and the brown sugar. Saute for 15 minutes or until the onion and the chiles are caramelized and soft. Set aside.;
  • Drain the roasted red peppers and put them in a blender or food processor. Add the mayonnaise, and season with salt and pepper. Puree the mayonnaise and roasted red peppers until well combined and the mixture is smooth. NOTE: This may be done up to 2 days ahead of time, and in fact the flavor will be more complete with an overnight chilling.;
  • Preheat an outdoor grill or grill pan on the stove top over medium-high heat. Place the burgers on the hot grill or pan until cooked to desired doneness. Due to the raw chorizo in the recipe, at least medium-well is recommended, approximately 10 minutes on each side. In the last 5 minutes of cooking, top the burgers with the slices of cheese so it can melt. If your grill has a lid, putting it on briefly will help the cheese melt quickly and evenly.
  • To serve: Spread about 1 tablespoon of the red pepper mayonnaise on both sides of the rolls. Lay a burger on the bottom halves, and top with a couple of spoonfuls of the caramelized onion and jalapeno relish.

PEPPER AND ONION RELISH



Pepper and Onion Relish image

I grew tons of sweet yellow wax peppers and onions this summer and didn't want them to go to waste, so I found this recipe. I love this kind of "condiment" to add to the table for a flavor zing when serving "Plain" meats like baked chicken or pork chops. It also shows up on our Holiday dinner tables with the more common relishes...

HARRY & DAVIDS SWEET AND HOT PEPPER AND ONION RELISH CLONE



Harry & Davids Sweet and Hot Pepper and Onion Relish Clone image

This recipe came from http://www.recipe-recipes-message-board.com/forum/view_topic.php?id=3467&forum_id=37 and was posted by forum member "thebuca". I've not tried it myself but I have heard it is wonderful! Update: I've now made this several times and it is fantastic. For some reason *after* canning it loses quite a bit of heat - as other reviewers have stated - I upped the quantity of Jalapeno's to 6, left the seeds in 2 and added a habanero. Too hot for me prior to canning, but afterwards it was perfect for my tastes. As to the sugar to liquid comment - I've not had any issues with mine not setting but it's worth bearing in mind. I also don't pressure can, I use a water bath and it works quite well.

Categories     Low Protein

Time 3h

Yield 7 pints

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 cups tomatoes, skinned, diced and drained
6 large red peppers, diced (I used multiple colors from garden)
8 cups sugar
2 tablespoons salt
4 ounces pectin
3 cups white vinegar
1 teaspoon ground red pepper
2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and diced
3 large onions, diced

Steps:

  • * Recipe called for two small boxes of pectin - I have no idea if a small box is 1 or 2 ounces so I guess at 2 ounces -- so be careful!
  • Mix all ingredients together, except pectin and bring to a boil.
  • Turn down and simmer for 2 - 2 1/2 hours until thickened.
  • Whisk in the 2 boxes of pectin and boil for 1 minute.
  • Pour into sterile jars.
  • Process in pressure canner at #11 for 15 minutes.
  • Notes: I increased the peppers and the ground red. I actually used scotch hots and it still lost some of the heat in the canning process. This always happens to me! Go ahead and be a little generous on the heat because it seems to leave the product after canning. Also, in using the 8 cups of sugar, you need the hot pepper to balance out the sweet.
  • It seems like a long time to cook but it makes a beautiful transformation from orange/red to a deep jewel ruby red. It is necessary to cook it the 2 hours because it becomes thick (unlike fresh salsa that stays thin).
  • Recipe reads that it makes about 7 pints. Not sure about that since I increased the vegetables. I would can in jelly jars because one mixed with 2 (8 oz) packages of cream cheese was plenty of dip.
  • I did not pressure can. I water-boiled for 10 minutes. They all set up perfectly.
  • It was a success. Tasted great, just wish it was a little spicier. I added cayenne to my cream cheese mixture.
