Provided by Rachael Ray : Food Network

Time 2h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 large red frying pepper or red bell pepper, for roasting
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 to 1 1/4 pounds small zucchini, very thinly sliced into discs
2 chile peppers, Fresno or other, tops removed, seeded and sliced into very thin rings
2 mild green frying peppers (cubanelle), thinly sliced into rings
1 medium yellow or red onion, peeled and thinly sliced into rings
5 to 6 baby Yukon gold potatoes, very thinly sliced into discs (like potato chips)
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons finely chopped rosemary
A few sprigs thyme, leaves picked and finely chopped
2 pounds peeled fresh heirloom tomatoes, chopped OR 1 (28-ounce) can fire-roasted crushed tomatoes, stewed tomatoes or chunky-style crushed tomatoes
2 to 3 cups chicken or vegetable stock
Fresh sweet basil leaves, shredded or torn, for garnish
Crusty bread or fresh baguette, for serving

Steps:

  • Char sweet frying pepper over open flame on stovetop or under hot broiler with oven door cracked to allow steam to escape. Once the skin is evenly charred and blackened all-over, place the pepper in a bowl and cover with plastic until pepper is cool enough to handle. Wipe or scrape the char off the pepper removing the skins. Seed the pepper and thinly slice.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil in a deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium to medium-high heat. When the oil ripples, add the zucchini, chiles, frying peppers, onions, potatoes, garlic, salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme and saute the vegetables until tender-crisp, 12 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the tomatoes and roasted peppers and allow the tomatoes to breakdown a few minutes. Stir in enough stock to desired consistency - as thin or thick as you like.
  • Cool completely and store for make-ahead meal.
  • Reheat over moderate heat, stirring occasionally. Serve in shallow bowls with shredded or torn sweet basil and crusty, warm bread.

SPICY POTATOES WITH GARLIC AIOLI



Spicy Potatoes with Garlic Aioli image

This is my take on Spanish patatas bravas. The potatoes are tossed in a flavorful spice mix and then finished to a crispy golden brown. The garlic aioli takes it over the top for an unconventional potato salad that'll be a hit at any party. -John Stiver, Bowen Island, British Columbia

SPICY GARLIC POTATOES



Spicy Garlic Potatoes image

These baked potato slices are a hit with my family. A mix of spice, garlic, and a hint of lemon make them well worth the long baking time!

Provided by maclorna

Categories     Potato

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 -5 yukon gold potatoes (red skin)
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 garlic clove (crushed)
1 tablespoon paprika
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (more or less to taste)
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400F & put a pot of water on to boil (add some salt if you like).
  • Wash but don't peel the potatoes, cut into 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick slices (thinner slices make more crispy potatoes).
  • When water is boiling, add potato slices and simmer for 10-15 minutes (until slightly tender, but not done). Rinse.
  • In a bowl mix together the remaining ingredients, ensuring that they are well blended -I use my magic bullet to blend the ingredients.
  • Then add the rinsed potatoes. ensure that they are well coated with the oil mixture.
  • Spread out the slices on a baking pan and place on the top rack for about 45 minute You will need to stir the potatoes around occasionally, so that they are evenly baked. I usually end with 5-10 minutes on broil, as we like them very crispy.

SPICY GARLIC POTATO NOODLES



Spicy Garlic Potato Noodles image

These homemade, gluten-free noodles are made with potato starch. Similar in texture to a pad Thai noodle (slippery and sticky on the outside and firm and chewy on the inside), they're neutral in taste and are perfect for absorbing the flavor of any sauce.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Pasta and Noodles     Noodle Recipes

Time 35m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup potato starch, or as needed
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
¾ cup boiling water, or as needed
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
4 teaspoons ketchup
¼ teaspoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon white sugar
1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
6 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes, or to taste
¼ cup thinly sliced green onions
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro, or to taste

Steps:

  • Combine 1 cup potato starch, salt, and vegetable oil in a bowl. Add a splash of boiling water at a time, stirring between additions, until you get a perfectly textured dough.
  • Transfer to a work surface dusted with a little potato starch. Working quickly while the dough is still warm, knead, adding more potato starch if necessary, until smooth and elastic.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Set out a large bowl of cold water.
  • While the water is boiling, roll dough to a thickness of 1/8 inch. Cut into 1/4-inch noodles with a pizza cutter. Separate noodles.
  • Add potato noodles (in batches if desired) and cook until they float, about 1 minute. Transfer to the bowl of cold water. Repeat to cook remaining noodles.
  • Whisk oyster sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, ketchup, sesame oil, sugar, and Sriracha together in a bowl.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and sizzle for 15 seconds. Add 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes and green onions; stir-fry for a just few seconds. Before the garlic starts to brown, add in the potato noodles. It's okay that some water comes into the pan as it will stop the cooking process and prevent the garlic from burning.
  • Add sauce and stir until noodles are coated. Cook until noodles are heated through and sauce starts to simmer, 1 to 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and stir in 1/4 cup chopped cilantro.
  • Divide noodles into 2 bowls and garnish with more cilantro and red pepper flakes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: For this recipe, it's best to use a firm potato that will hold its shape when cooked, such as Yukon Gold or russet potatoes.
  • Cut the potatoes into even-sized pieces: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the potatoes will steam instead of fry and won't get crispy.
  • Cook the potatoes over medium-high heat: This will help them get crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
  • Don't stir the potatoes too often: Stirring them too often will prevent them from getting crispy.
  • Add the zucchini and garlic towards the end of cooking: This will prevent them from overcooking.
  • Season the potatoes and zucchini to taste: You can use salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, or any other seasonings you like.

Conclusion:

This spicy garlic potatoes and zucchini recipe is a quick and easy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The potatoes are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, while the zucchini is tender and flavorful. The garlic and chili flakes add a nice spicy kick. This recipe is also a great way to use up leftover potatoes and zucchini. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy side dish, give this recipe a try!
