Chile Lime Tuiles Recipes

CHILE-LIME PARTY MIX

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
• In a large bowl, combine the corn cereal, peanuts, pretzels, chipotle Cheddar crackers, tortilla chips, coconut, corn nuts and pepitas.
• In a small saucepan, melt the butter. Add the lime zest, seasoning salt, kosher salt and chili powder. Simmer until the flavors are combined, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and stir in the Parmesan.
• Pour half the seasoning mixture over the party mix and stir to combine. Then add the second half of the seasoning mix and stir again, making sure the seasoning mixture is evenly distributed over the party mix. Divide between the 2 prepared baking sheets and bake until the mix is lightly toasted and the Parmesan is melted, about 15 minutes. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container.

GRILLED CHILE-LIME TURKEY BREAST

Steps:

• Blend ancho chiles, pasilla chiles, cumin, onion, salt, and pepper together using a spice or coffee grinder into a fine powder. Pour spice blend into a bowl and stir in brown sugar.
• Squeeze lime juice over turkey and rub with spice blend. Let marinate for about 1 hour.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Reduce grill temperature to medium. Remove turkey from marinade, reserve any excess for basting. Sear turkey breast on the preheated grill, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
• Turn 1/2 of the grill burners off. Roast breast on the grill for 15 to 20 minutes. Turn turkey over and baste with reserved marinade; cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), 15 to 20 minutes more. Let sit for 5 minutes before serving.

CHILE-LIME TEQUILA

Steps:

• Combine ingredients in a clean one-liter jar with a lid. Store in the refrigerator and shake daily for 2 days until infused, then strain and discard solids.

CHILE-LIME RUB

Steps:

• Mix together the chile powder, salt, cumin, cayenne, coriander, sugar and lime zest in a bowl. This spice mix not only goes great with chicken and pork, but also to rim a spicy margarita.

CHILE LIME TUILES

Steps:

• Bring sugar, butter, and corn syrup to a boil in a 1-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring, then boil 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in remaining ingredients until smooth. Cool dough to room temperature.
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Place wooden spoons parallel to each other 2 inches apart on a metal rack.
• Roll a level teaspoon of dough into a ball, then into a log. Arrange 3 logs about 3 inches apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet, then pinch and stretch each to form an 8- to 9-inch-long strip (about 1/8 inch wide).
• Bake in middle of oven until flat and golden, 7 to 9 minutes. While first sheet is baking, form remaining strips on more sheets of parchment. Slide parchment paper with baked cookies from sheet to a rack and cool cookies 30 seconds. Working quickly, slide a long thin metal spatula under each cookie and drape across spoon handles to form a wavy shape. (If cookies harden on paper before being draped, slide them back onto hot baking sheet for a moment to soften.) Bake and drape remaining cookies in same manner.

SMOKED SHRIMP WITH CHILE-LIME DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the shrimp with the salt and pepper, coating them evenly. Cover and refrigerate for 3 hours.
• Meanwhile, start the sauce: In a blender, combine the chiles, garlic, lime juice, and salt and blend until the bits are the size of a match head. Transfer to a small bowl, cover, and keep at room temperature.
• Heat a smoker to 225°F. Rinse the seasoning off the shrimp and pat dry with paper towels. Place the shrimp in the smoker and smoke until they turn dark coral, 20 to 25 minutes.
• While the shrimp are smoking, stir the sugar and fish sauce into the sauce, then taste and adjust the seasoning with more fish sauce if needed. Aim for sour and hot first, then salty and just a tad bit of sweetness. Stir in the cilantro.
• Serve the shrimp with the sauce.

WHOLE30® CHILE-LIME COD FILLETS

Steps:

• Combine paprika, parsley, oregano, chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt, black pepper, and cayenne in a small bowl and mix well. Brush cod fillets with 1 tablespoon olive oil; rub with the spice mixture. Use all of the spice mixture and make sure they are well coated. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 12 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Place cod on a foil-lined baking sheet.
• Cook in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily and is opaque throughout, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt ghee with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a small saucepan. Add lime zest and juice and swirl the pan to mix. Serve the cod topped with the lime butter.

CHILE-LIME PEANUTS

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chiles and lime zest. Cook, stirring, 15 seconds. Add peanuts, sugar, and salt. Cook, stirring, until glossy and fragrant, about 4 minutes; let them cool to room temperature.
