Foil Packet Seafood With Beans And Kale Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high. Mix the butter, paprika, lemon zest, 2 pinches of salt and a grind of pepper in a small bowl until smooth; set aside. Toss the green beans, wax beans, butter beans and garlic with the olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl.
• Lay out two 24-inch-long sheets of heavy-duty foil. Divide the vegetables between the foil sheets. Add 1 tablespoon water to each mound of vegetables. Bring the short ends of the foil together and fold to seal, then fold in the sides and seal tightly to make 2 packets.
• Grill the foil packets, 8 minutes. Flip the packets and continue grilling until the beans are tender and charred in spots, about 4 more minutes. Carefully open the packets and toss with the paprika butter. Serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Lay out four 18-inch-long sheets of heavy-duty foil. Mound 1/2 cup mushrooms and 1 cup spinach in the center of each; season with salt and pepper. Top each with a salmon fillet, season with salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil. Drizzle each with 1 tablespoon wine (or water). Bring the short ends of the foil together and fold twice to seal; fold in the sides to form a packet, leaving room inside for steam.
• Preheat a grill to medium high. Grill the foil packets until the fish is just cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes. (Alternatively, you can bake the foil packets in a 450˚ F oven until the fish is just cooked through, 12 to 15 minutes.) Let the packets sit 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the butter, scallions, ginger, sesame oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a mini food processor. Pulse until smooth. Carefully open the foil packets. Top with the flavored butter.

Steps:

• In a large, heavy pot, brown the ground beef with the garlic over medium heat until the beef is totally cooked, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain off most of the excess fat, leaving a little behind for moisture and flavor. Add the tomato sauce, tomato paste, chili powder, cumin, oregano, salt and cayenne. Stir together well, cover the pot and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally; if the liquid level seems low, add up to 1 cup water to keep it from burning.
• After an hour, stir in the kidney and pinto beans. In a small bowl, combine the masa harina with 1/2 cup water and stir together with a fork until it's smooth. Pour the masa mixture into the chili. Stir together well, then taste the chili and adjust the seasonings. Simmer the chili for another 10 minutes to thicken, then turn off the heat and let it cool.
• Fill freezer bags with 2-cup portions and freeze them flat for easy stacking (or freeze in other freezer-safe containers). Thaw and use the chili packets in your favorite chili dog, chili cheeseburger or chili nacho recipes.
