Romesco Sauce (aka Red pepper)

May 07, 2013

Light & healthy doesn't have to mean boring. Romesco Sauce is bright, and flavorful and can be used to top so many dishes. Serve it over chicken, steak or fish. Top some croquettes, toss it into pasta, or just dunk your bread into it! This recipe yields 1 cup.

¼ cup Blanched, slivered almonds
1 slice Sandwich bread, crust removed, and torn into small pieces
1 clove Garlic, chopped
8 whole Jarred piquillo peppers
1-2 whole Chipotle in adobo, seeds removed
1 Tbsp. Tomato paste
2 Tbsp. Sherry vinegar
¼ tsp. Salt
¼ tsp. Pepper
3 Tbsp. Olive oil

1. Add the almonds to the bowl of a food processor; pulse until the almonds are quite fine, some small pieces are okay. 2. Add the torn bread and the garlic, pulse until you have the texture of bread...
