Best 6 Spicy Southwestern Prime Rib With Snappy Potato Cakes And San Joaquin Salsa Recipes

JACQUI MALOUF GRANDMA GOODWITCH'S GREEN GODDESS

Steps:

• Strain off pineapple juice, reserve juice and place pineapple in a large bowl. Set aside. In a medium bowl add Jell-O powder, 2 cups boiling water and stir until dissolved. Add 1 cup cold water and 1 cup reserved pineapple juice. Add cider vinegar. Let pre-set in the freezer for a few minutes (only until it sticks to the sides). In an electric mixer combine cream cheese and crushed pineapple. Add jello mixture, mix until smooth. In a separate bowl whip cream until it holds soft peaks. Gently fold cream into jello. Transfer to a pretty bowl that is not too deep. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until set.;

SWEET AND SPICY SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Combine the flour, brown sugar, chile powder, garlic, thyme, 2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle all over the short ribs and rub into the meat. Arrange the ribs in a single layer in a 6-quart slow cooker. Sprinkle any of the remaining flour mixture on top.
• Whisk the apple butter, mustard, ketchup and cider in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until very hot, then transfer to the slow cooker. Cover and cook on high, 4 hours.
• Using tongs, turn the ribs in the sauce to coat, then remove to a bowl. Skim off the fat from the sauce (there will be quite a bit), then return the ribs to the sauce and add the carrots and scallions. Cover and cook on high, 2 more hours. Serve with cornbread.

PRIME RIB AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Combine the oil and garlic; rub evenly over roast. Place roast, fat side up, in a small roasting pan. Place a potato on each side of roast. Bake, uncovered, at 325° for 2 to 2-1/2 hours until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 145°; medium, 160°; well done, 170°). Let stand for 10 minutes before carving.

SPICY SOUTHWEST POTATO SOUP

Steps:

• Melt butter or margarine on medium heat in a large pot .
• Add potatoes and stir until the potatoes are cooked.
• Sprinkle flour over potatoes. Stir for 2 minutes.
• Gradually add chicken stock, stirring until smooth. Return to heat and stir until slightly thickened.
• Add cheese. Continue cooking on medium heat until the soup is hot.
• Taste soup, adding salt or pepper as needed.

SOUTHWESTERN BAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• In a medium skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef with the garlic and onion; drain.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the meat mixture, chili powder, black beans, corn, sour cream and salsa. Stir until well blended.
• Into a 9x13 inch baking dish, spoon enough of the beef mixture to cover the bottom. Arrange half of the crushed tortilla chips on top of the meat mixture and layer with 1 cup of Cheddar cheese. Spoon another layer of the meat mixture on top of the cheese layer, cover with remaining chips and layer with 1 cup of cheese. Spread final layer of meat mixture on top and sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of cheese on top. Top with diced tomato and green onions.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.

SOUTHWEST RIBS

Steps:

• Defrost ribs, season with Emeril's southwest seasoning, wrap in saran wrap, and let marinate at least over night. (I usually do this step when I bring them home from the grocery store. After I season them, I wrap them in foil and freeze them until I'm ready to cook them.).
• Remove plastic, wrap in foil, and cook for one hour at 325°F.
• Take ribs out of foil, place upside down on baking sheet, and put back in the oven. Cook another 30 minutes.
• Take ribs out, turn them right side up, and cook another 15 minutes. (Rib meat should be pulling away from the bone at this point.).
• Remove ribs again, baste with barbecue sauce (top and bottom) and cook for another 15 minutes.
• Let cool, wrapped in foil, and then cut apart. Serve and enjoy.
