Best 8 Three Bean Salad With Chili Apricot Dressing Recipes

SPICY 3-BEAN CHILI SALAD

Steps:

• Soak the onions in a bowl of ice water to mellow their sharpness and set aside. Strain and rinse the black, kidney and pinto beans.
• Add 3 tablespoons of the oil, the tomato paste, chili powder, cumin and oregano to a medium skillet. Turn the heat to medium-low and cook, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon or heatproof spatula, until the tomato paste and oil have come together as a dark brown paste, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook for 1 minute more. Turn off the heat, and stir in the remaining 5 tablespoons oil. Let cool for 25 minutes so the oil can absorb the flavors of the tomato-paste mixture.
• Pour the oil mixture into a fine-mesh strainer set over a liquid measuring cup with a spout. Do not press down on the tomato-paste mixture, just let the oil drain until there is at least 1/4 cup of it in the measuring cup, 5 to 7 minutes. Discard the tomato-paste mixture. Put the pickled jalapeno juice and 1 teaspoon salt into a large mixing bowl, and slowly whisk in the flavored oil.
• Strain the onions, and add them to the bowl with the dressing. Add the jalapenos, all the beans and the red and yellow bell peppers. Stir to combine, and add salt to taste. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight. Serve with a dollop of sour cream, and garnish with the sliced scallions.

THREE-BEAN SALAD WITH CORIANDER CHILI DRESSING

Steps:

• In a large saucepan combine the black beans with triple their volume of cold water and in another large saucepan combine the white beans with the same proportion of cold water. Bring the water to a boil and simmer the beans, uncovered, for 2 minutes. Remove the pans from the heat and let the beans soak for 1 hour. Drain each pan of beans separately in a colander. In each pan put 2 1/2 quarts water and stir the black beans into the water in one pan, the white beans into the water in the other. Cook the beans at a bare simmer, testing for doneness every 5 minutes, for 15 to 40 minutes, or until they are just tender but still hold their shape. Drain the beans and let them cool to warm.
• In a blender purée 1 of the garlic cloves, the jalapeños, and 1 cup of the coriander with 1/3 cup of the lemon juice, 2/3 cup of the oil, and salt to taste, scraping down the side of the blender, until the dressing is smooth. In a very large bowl toss the beans with the dressing and let them marinate, covered and chilled, stirring occasionally, overnight. The salad may be prepared up to this point 1 day in advance and kept covered and chilled.
• In a saucepan of boiling salted water boil the green beans for 5 minutes, or until they are crisp-tender, and drain them in a colander. Refresh the beans under cold water and pat them dry. In the blender purée the remaining garlic clove and the remaining 1 cup coriander with the remaining 2 tablespoons lemon juice, the remaining 1/3 cup oil, and salt to taste, scraping down the side of the blender, until the dressing is smooth. Add the green beans and the dressing to the bowl of dressed beans, toss the salad well, and serve at room temperature.
