Grilled Vegetables With Salsa Verde Recipes

Steps:

• Cut zucchini and eggplant lengthwise into 1/2 inch thick pieces.
• Core, seed and quarter the peppers.
• Slice endives in half lengthwise.
• Place all vegetables in a bowl and drizzle with 1 1/2 tbsp olive oil.
• Sprinkle with salt to taste and toss all to combine.
• Combine parsley, capers, olives, lemon juice and remaining olive oil in a small bowl and set aside in the refridgerator to allow the flavors to combine.
• Grill or broil vegetables, turning them once until they are lightly browned on both sides.
• Transfer vegetables to a serving platter, spoon the salsa verde over them and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill to medium. Soak four 12-inch wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes.
• Whisk the lime juice, 2 cloves garlic and chipotle together in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Add the chicken, toss well to coat, and set aside for 20 minutes to marinate.
• Meanwhile, put the tomatillos in a medium saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 7 minutes and then drain. Puree the jalapeno, onion, the remaining 1 clove garlic and 1 teaspoon salt in a blender until smooth. Add the cooked tomatillos and cilantro sprigs and puree until smooth.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade and thread onto the soaked skewers. Lightly oil the grill grates. Grill the chicken, flipping often, until cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes. Serve with the salsa verde and warm tortillas.

Steps:

• Stir the first 7 ingredients and 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes in a large bowl to blend. Whisk in 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper. Set the salsa verde aside. Place the lamb in a 15 by 10 by 2-inch glass baking dish. Rub the minced garlic, remaining 2 teaspoons of salt, 1 teaspoon of black pepper, and remaining 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes all over lamb. Pour 1/2 cup of salsa verde over the lamb, turning the lamb to coat evenly. Use immediately, or cover the dish and remaining salsa verde separately with plastic wrap and refrigerate up to 1 day.
• Spray the grill rack with nonstick spray and prepare the barbecue (medium-high heat). Grill the lamb until a meat thermometer inserted into the thicker parts registers 130 degrees F for medium-rare, turning occasionally, about 40 minutes. Transfer the lamb to a work surface and let rest 15 minutes.
• Cut the lamb across grain into thin slices. Arrange the lamb slices on a platter. Serve the remaining salsa verde alongside.

Steps:

• Puree first 4 ingredients in processor. Place vegetables in large bowl. Add salsa mixture; toss to coat. Chill 2 hours.
• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Remove vegetables from bowl, reserving salsa verde in bottom of bowl. Transfer salsa verde to serving bowl. Grill vegetables until cooked through and nicely charred, turning occasionally, about 20 minutes for potatoes and onions, 14 minutes for peppers, 8 minutes for mushrooms, 6 minutes for zucchini and 5 minutes for asparagus. Arrange grilled vegetables on platter. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup chopped cilantro. Serve, passing salsa verde separately.

Steps:

• Squeeze juice from lemon halves into large bowl; add lemon halves. Fill bowl with water. Trim stem of 1 artichoke. Starting at base, bend leaves back and snap off where leaves break naturally, continuing until all tough outer leaves have been removed. Using small sharp knife, trim outside of base until smooth and no dark green areas remain. Cut artichoke lengthwise in half. Using tip of knife, remove any purple-tipped leaves from center. Add artichoke to lemon water. Repeat with remaining artichokes. Bring large pot of salted water to boil. Drain artichokes. Add to boiling water; cook until just tender, about 8 minutes. Drain; set aside. (Can be made 1 day ahead; cover and chill.)
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray 3 large rimmed baking sheets with nonstick spray. Arrange artichoke halves, fennel and leeks in single layer on 2 prepared sheets. Arrange asparagus and carrots in single layer on third sheet. Brush vegetables with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast vegetables until tender, turning over halfway through, about 35 minutes total for artichokes, fennel and leeks and 20 minutes total for asparagus and carrots.
• Divide vegetables among 6 plates. Drizzle Salsa Verde over and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat grill or grill pan to high heat. To make Marinade: combine all ingredients in small bowl.
• To make Tacos: Brush mushroom caps with marinade. Grill mushrooms 3 to 5 minutes per side. Cool until easy to handle, then slice into strips.
• To make Salsa Verde: puree all ingredients in food processor 1 minute, or until smooth. Pour sals over mushroom strips, and let stand 5 to 10 minutes.
• Lightly warm tortillas 15 seconds per side in skillet or on griddle. Fill tortillas with sliced mushrooms, avocado slices, tomatoes, and cabbage. Top each taco with sour cream, if using.
