Best 7 Roasted Poblano And Caper Salsa Recipes

ROASTED POBLANO AND CAPER SALSA

Steps:

• Heat broiler. Broil 1 poblano chile on a broiler-proof baking sheet, turning occasionally, until blackened in spots and blistered all over, 5-7 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let sit 10 minutes. Peel, seed, and coarsely chop chile; place in a small bowl.
• Heat 1/3 cup olive oil in a small skillet over medium and cook 1 tablespoon capers and 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds, stirring, until mixture is fragrant and capers are crisp, about 30 seconds.
• Remove peel and white pith from 1 lemon; slice into thin rounds and remove seeds. Add to bowl with chile along with 1/4 small onion, finely chopped, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, and caper mixture; season with salt and pepper.

ROASTED POBLANO AND COCONUT SALSA

Steps:

• Roast the poblano peppers on a grill. Clean the peppers of skin and seeds.
• Brush the onions and tomatoes with a little olive oil, season them with salt and pepper and grill until well marked on both sides, once done set aside.
• Dice the poblanos, onion, and tomatoes to a medium size dice.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the diced onion, tomatoes, and poblanos with the toasted coconut. Add the orange juice, olive oil, and cilantro. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with fish or chicken.

ROASTED POBLANO PEPPER & TOMATILLO SALSA

Steps:

• Slice poblano pepper into medium-thin strips, avoiding seeds.
• It is not necessary to use the entire pepper as poblano peppers can sometimes be large (bell pepper sized).
• Peel garlic and chop each clove in half.
• Place all of this in shallow pan and roast for 20 minutes under broiler set to “low” – toaster oven works fine.
• If you have a kitchen torch, you may use this to fire-roast the peppers as well.
• Drain liquid from canned tomatoes and canned chilies, chop Roma tomato into quarters.
• Peel and chop onion into quarters.
• Do the same with the tomatillos.
• Add all of this to a food processor and process until salsa is thoroughly blended.
• Add olives and the juice of the lime and process again.
• Add half of the cilantro leaves, roasted poblano peppers and garlic, black beans (if used) and tequila and process again, adding the corn at the final stage of processing to ensure the corn is not puréed.
• Salsa should be a nice consistency.
• Don’t over-process!
• Pour into a mixing bowl and stir in 2-4 teaspoons of sea salt (to taste), any additional lime juice that can be squeezed and a teaspoon of coarsely-ground pepper.
• Zest the lime and add this to the salsa.
• If you don’t have a zester, simply use a fine cheese grater.
• This adds a great fresh zing to the salsa.
• Cover and refrigerate to allow flavors to mesh.
• Immediately prior to serving, chop the remaining cilantro leaves and stir into the salsa.
• Serve with your choice of corn tortilla chips!

FIRE-ROASTED POBLANO SALSA

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate. Rinse poblano and jalapeno peppers.
• Roast peppers and onion on the preheated grill, turning occasionally, until all sides are charred and blistered, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Place peppers in a covered bowl for 5 minutes to steam and loosen skins. Scrape skins off peppers using a knife and discard. Slice peppers in half and remove seeds, if desired. Transfer to a food processor or blender.
• Add diced tomatoes, onion, garlic, cilantro, lime juice, chipotle powder, and salt to the peppers; pulse for 15 to 20 seconds until desired consistency. Serve immediately or refrigerate for several hours for flavors to blend.
