Time 20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 large poblano pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more, for drizzling
4 large cloves garlic, smashed
1/4 cup lightly packed fresh mint leaves
4 English cucumbers, peeled, seeded and chopped
Juice of 1 lemon
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 small green or yellow heirloom tomato, seeded and finely chopped
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
Picked lump crabmeat or chopped cooked shrimp, for serving
Crusty bread, for serving

Steps:

  • Roast the poblano pepper directly over a gas burner, turning, until charred all over. (Alternatively, broil the pepper.) Transfer to a cutting board to cool slightly and then peel, seed and chop. Heat the olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes; set aside to cool slightly.
  • Put the mint, cucumbers, lemon juice, oil and garlic mixture and chopped poblano in a blender and puree until smooth. Season with salt and black pepper.
  • Ladle the gazpacho into 4 small bowls and top evenly with the tomato, chives and crab or shrimp. Drizzle with oil.
