Best Grilled Poblanos In Garlic Oil Recipes

VERY GREEN COLESLAW WITH GRILLED POBLANOS

Steps:

• Prepare the slaw: Heat a charcoal or gas grill to medium-high (400 degrees). Place the poblanos on the hot grill over direct heat. Cook until the skin is charred, 12 to 15 minutes, turning once or twice. (If using a gas grill, keep the grill covered between flips.) Transfer to a cutting board and let cool. Remove the stems and seeds then finely chop. (The poblanos can be grilled ahead. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to use, up to 1 day.)
• Make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the garlic, vinegar, celery seed and salt until combined, then gradually whisk in the olive oil until well blended. Whisk in the hot sauce, if using.
• Finish the slaw: In a large bowl, combine the cabbage, chopped poblanos, scallions, vinegar, sugar and salt; let stand for about 10 minutes. This process breaks down the cabbage and produces liquid. Feel free to pour off excess liquid before adding dressing. Add the dressing and toss until well combined and serve. The slaw can be made up to 2 days in advance. Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate. Pour off excess liquid before serving. Your cabbage should be tender with a crunch.

GRILLED POBLANOS IN GARLIC OIL

Steps:

• Heat a grill or griddle until very hot. Place whole peppers on cooking surface (if using a grill, lay a sheet of aluminum foil under peppers) and cook until skin is completely black and flesh is soft, about 20 minutes. Turn peppers every 2 to 3 minutes for even cooking.
• When completely charred, wrap peppers in newspaper or place in paper bag; set aside to cool at least 15 minutes. When cool enough to handle, remove stems, seeds and skin, working gently to limit breakage.
• Cut peppers lengthwise in half, then into strips about 1/4-inch thick. Arrange peppers in a shallow dish and sprinkle with sliced garlic, salt and pepper. Add olive oil and thyme, cover and marinate at least 2 hours or, preferably, overnight.
• Serve at room temperature with crusty bread as an appetizer, or as a side dish with grilled fish, steak or pork. To serve on toast, slice bread and toast or grill just before serving. Drizzle toast with a little oil from dish, add a few pepper strips, and top with an anchovy.
