Red Chile Glaze Food

RED CHILE-GLAZED MEATLOAF

Steps:

• For the red chile glaze: Put the chiles in a bowl, cover with 2 cups boiling water and let sit for 30 minutes.
• Transfer the chiles to a blender, add 1/2 cup of the soaking liquid (save the rest) and blend until smooth. Add the honey, vinegar and some salt and pepper and transfer to a bowl. If the glaze is too thick to spread on the meatloaf, add a bit more of the soaking liquid.
• For the meatloaf: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray lightly with nonstick spray.
• Heat the oil in a large saucepan over high heat. Add the poblanos and onions and cook until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the cumin and cook 1 minute longer. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly,
• Whisk the eggs with a splash of water in a large bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and add in the ground chuck and ground pork, the cooled onion mixture and the chips and cilantro; mix until just combined.
• Transfer the meat to the prepared baking sheet and form into an oval loaf about 6 by 12 inches. Bake for 45 minutes, then begin to brush with a good amount of the red chile glaze. Bake, glazing occasionally, until the meatloaf reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees F, about 15 minutes longer.

APPLEWOOD SMOKED PORK RIBS WITH RED CHILE GLAZE

Steps:

• Prepare the ribs by removing the thin, white skin-like membrane on the inside of the rib surface if still present (or have your butcher do it for you). Make small slashes, using the point of a very sharp knife, between the ribs without cutting all the way through. Reserve the ribs.
• Combine the onion, chiles, and seasonings in a deep stockpot and add water to fill 1/2 full. Bring to a boil over medium heat and add the ribs when the water first reaches the boil. Lower the heat and cook at a simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, depending upon the rib size, or until the ribs are soft and cooked half way through.
• Prepare the grill to medium high temperature and prepare the wood chips according to the manufacturer's instructions. Introduce the wood chips to the fire prior to the ribs entering the grill. While the grill is the best method to use for preparing the ribs, the oven may also be used to bake the ribs, however, the applewood chips should not be used in the oven! Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F, place the ribs in an oven proof baking pan, and place them in the center of the oven, liberally basting with the Red Chile Glaze. Bake for a total of 25 to 30 minutes, turning the ribs over half way through the baking process and basting with additional sauce.
• Place the ribs on the grill and liberally baste with the Red Chile Glaze, prepared ahead of time. Continue to cook of the grill for 8 to 10 minutes per side or until the ribs are very soft and flexible. Remove from the heat and serve accompanied by the glaze, red beans, and the vegetable of your choice.
• Combine cornstarch and juice and mix until smooth. Place into a saucepan with the remaining ingredients and cook over medium high heat until mixture thickens. Add seeds from the chiles, and if it gets too thick, add water water.
• Note: You may want to add more vinegar or juice depending on how sweet or sour you like things. Keep covered in the refrigerator for up to a week.

CHILE GLAZE

Steps:

• Tear chiles into large pieces and toast in a dry heavy skillet over moderate heat, about 30 seconds on each side. Soak chiles in 1/2 cup hot water in a 1-cup glass measure to soften.
• Mash tamarind with remaining 1/2 cup hot water to soften and force through a sieve into a bowl, discarding solids.
• Purée chiles with soaking water, orange juice, lemon juice, garlic, vinegar, oil, and mustard in a blender. Add tamarind mixture and honey and blend well. Pour through sieve into a small saucepan and simmer, partially covered (mixture will spatter) and stirring occasionally, until thickened, 5 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

RED CHILE CHICKEN WINGS WITH CHIPOTLE HONEY GLAZE

Steps:

• For the blue cheese sauce: Stir together the yogurt, blue cheese, cilantro, onions and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
• For the hot wings: Heat 2 to 3 inches of oil in a large, high-sided pan until it reaches 375 degrees F on a deep-fry thermometer.
• Sprinkle the wings with salt and pepper. Stir together the chile powders, cumin, 1 teaspoon salt and some pepper in a shallow bowl. Dust the wings with the seasoning mixture and toss in a bowl to evenly coat. Add the wings to the oil in batches and cook until golden brown and cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes.
• For the glaze: In a large bowl, combine the vinegar, chipotle in adobo, honey and Dijon mustard. To a small saute pan, add the butter and melt. Add the melted butter to the bowl with the vinegar-honey mixture and stir to combine.
• Toss the freshly fried wings with the glaze in the bowl. Garnish with cilantro. Serve with the blue cheese sauce.

RED CHILE GLAZE

Steps:

• Deseed the chiles, and place in a bowl. Reconstitute them by pouring on 3 cups boiling water and allowing them to soak about 5 minutes. Drain the chiles and reserve 1-cup of the liquid.
• Process the chiles with the reserved water in a blender or food processor until fine. Strain and transfer pulp into a mixing bowl. Add the honey, chile powder, and cumin and mix well. Refrigerate for 1 hour to blend flavors.
• This glaze is excellent on grilled fish, roasted or grilled chicken, or roast pork.
