Roasted Green Chili Hummus Recipes

ROASTED GREEN CHILI HUMMUS

Steps:

• Boil garbanzo beans in salted water for 10-12 minutes. Drain and place into food processor.
• Add remaining ingredients. Blend until smooth.
• If it does not become smooth enough for your taste, add additional water, olive oil, or lime juice - depending on the flavor you desire.
• Add Salt and Pepper to taste. Pulse to mix through.
• If you like a bit more heat than the green chili gives, add a bit of jalapeno or serrano pepper. Whatever you do -- please -- don't add canned diced chilis. The vinegary canned flavor does not go well with the garbanzo beans.
• Serve with warm soft pitas or crispy pita chips.

ROASTED GREEN CHILE STEW

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a Dutch oven or heavy saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the cubed pork, garlic, onion, cumin and oregano. Cook and stir until pork is browned.
• Cook and stir for a few more minutes, then pour in the vegetable broth. Reduce the heat to low, and simmer for about 30 minutes.
• Add the potato to the stew, and simmer for about 45 minutes. You can roast your chilies during this time, peel, seed chop and add to the stew along with the serrano peppers. If the stew becomes too dry, add a little water. When the potatoes are soft and the pork is tender, add the tomatoes. Cook for about 10 minutes, then remove from the heat and serve.

GREEN CHILI HUMMUS DIP

Steps:

• Put all ingredients in food processor and mix till nice and smooth.
• Adding water or olive oil to create a smoother dip if desired.
• Serve with chips or toasted pita wedges.

ROASTED GARLIC HUMMUS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place garlic on aluminum foil and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until jammy.
• In a small saucepan on low heat, combine the rest of your olive oil with your rosemary. Bring to a low bubble and take off the heat, allowing the flavors to marry. Discard rosemary stalks.
• In a blender, combine your chickpeas, tahini, half the rosemary olive oil and squeeze out your jammy garlic flesh.
• Gradually add in the rest of the olive oil as the blender is on, looking for that smooth and creamy consistency. Season accordingly with salt, pepper and lemon juice.

ROASTED GARLIC HUMMUS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Slice the top off each head of garlic. Drizzle the cut ends with 1 tablespoon olive oil and wrap in foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes. Remove and let sit until cool enough to handle. Turn on the broiler.
• Reserve liquid from chickpeas. Rinse and drain chickpeas; transfer to a blender.
• Add 1/2 of the reserved chickpea liquid to the blender with lemon juice and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Squeeze in roasted garlic from 2 of the heads. Blend until creamy, adding more chickpea liquid if needed.
• Split pita rounds and cut into quarters. Place on a baking sheet.
• Place under the preheated broiler until crisp, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Place hummus into a bowl. Make a well in the center and squeeze roasted garlic from the remaining head into the well. Sprinkle with paprika. Serve with pitas.
