Easy Romesco Sauce image

Spread this Romesco sauce, made from bell peppers, on our Turkey Sandwich.This recipe makes a generous amount of the sauce, but it also tastes great with other dishes, such as grilled vegetables, pasta, and seafood (especially shrimp and halibut).

Time 15m

Yield Makes about 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 red bell peppers, tops removed, halved lengthwise and seeded
1 slice (about 2 ounces) whole-grain bread, lightly toasted
1/4 cup almonds, toasted
1 small tomato, cored and quartered
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon red-wine vinegar
2 medium garlic cloves
1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Coarse salt and ground pepper

Steps:

  • Heat broiler with the rack in top position. Place peppers, skin side up, on a broiler pan or baking sheet and broil until the skins blister and blacken in spots, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer peppers to a bowl. When peppers are cool enough to handle, peel but don't wash them (the water would rinse away some of the roasted flavor).
  • In a food processor, pulse bread and almonds until finely ground, about 30 seconds. Add peppers, tomato, oil, vinegar, garlic, red pepper flakes, and 1/2 teaspoon salt; process until mixture is thick and fairly smooth, 20 to 30 seconds. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.

This sauce is so good! I love the combination of flavors and it's so easy to make. I'll definitely be making this again.

I found the sauce to be a bit too spicy for my taste, but it was still good. I think I'll try making it again with less chili pepper next time.

This sauce was a great way to add some flavor to my grilled chicken. It was easy to make and had a nice smoky flavor.

I made this sauce to go with some grilled fish and it was a perfect pairing. The smoky flavor of the roasted peppers really complemented the fish.
