Grilled Cubanelles Tomatoes And Scallions Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium-high, and brush grates with safflower oil. Soak 4 pieces of kitchen twine in water. Separate scallions into 4 smaller bunches; secure with twine. Brush scallions, tomatoes, and peppers with olive oil, and season generously with salt and pepper. Sprinkle cut sides of tomatoes with sugar.
• Grill vegetables, turning occasionally, until tender and well charred, 5 to 6 minutes for scallions and tomatoes and about 10 minutes for peppers.

Steps:

• Prepare an outdoor grill to medium high heat. Brush the scallions with olive oil. Lay the scallions on the grill until you see distinct grill marks, about 2 minutes. Turn the scallions over and cook about 1 minute more. Transfer to 2 plates and serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat the grill or a grill pan to medium-high heat.
• In a large serving bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons of the olive oil with the vinegar, garlic, lime zest and juice. Taste for seasoning.
• Arrange the tomatoes, cut side-up, with the scallions and thyme in a single layer on a baking sheet. Drizzle the remaining 4 to 5 tablespoons olive oil over all and sprinkle with salt. Place the tomatoes, cut side-up, and the scallions and thyme on a hot part of the grill and cook for 2 minutes. Flip the scallions and thyme and gently flip the tomatoes onto the cut sides. Place the chives on the grill near the scallions. Cook until tender and lightly charred, an additional 2 to 3 minutes.
• Remove the thyme sprigs from the grill. Remove the leaves from the stems and mix into the ricotta. Remove the tomatoes and scallions. Chop the scallions and chives into large (1/2-inch) pieces. Season the tomatoes with the sugar and some pepper. Spoon the ricotta into a serving platter or bowl and season with salt. Arrange the tomatoes, scallions and chives next to and on top of the ricotta. Spoon the dressing on top.

Steps:

• Heat grill to high. Clean and lightly oil hot grates. Season steaks with salt and pepper and cook 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer steaks to a plate, tent with foil, and let rest.
• Meanwhile, place a double layer of foil or a grill topper on grill. Top with tomatoes and scallions; drizzle with oil. Grill until tender and lightly charred, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer vegetables to a bowl, toss with vinegar, and season with salt and pepper. Top steaks with vegetables.

Steps:

• Heat the grill to medium-high. In a medium bowl, coat the chicken with 2 tablespoons olive oil, the chili powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt; set aside. (You can do this step up to 1 day ahead; refrigerate and bring to room temperature before cooking.)
• On a large platter, layer the tomatoes, corn kernels, red onion and fresh oregano (if using). Season with 3/4 teaspoon salt and drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil.
• When ready to grill, clean the grates with a grill brush, then lightly grease the grates. Grill the chicken until browned and cooked through, and it releases easily from the grates, 5 to 7 minutes per side. (If flare-ups occur, move the chicken to an area of the grill with smaller flames underneath. For a gas grill, close the lid between flips, listening and peeking occasionally for flare-ups.)
• Transfer the chicken to the platter. Let rest for 5 to 20 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Light a grill and preheat for at least 10 minutes or preheat a grill pan. Oil the grates. Meanwhile, soak 1 bamboo skewer for 10 minutes. Thread the garlic on the skewer.
• Brush the scallions and the cut sides of the tomatoes with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Grill the garlic and scallions over high heat, turning frequently, until blistered in spots and softened, about 2 minutes. Grill the tomatoes cut side down until nicely charred, about 2 minutes. Flip and grill until the skin starts to shrink, about 1 minute.
• Peel the garlic and finely chop, then transfer to a large bowl. Thinly slice the scallions crosswise and transfer to the bowl. Pull off the tomato skins, dice the tomatoes and add them to the garlic and scallions.
• Meanwhile, in a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the pasta until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water and drain. Add the hot pasta, the cheese and the 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the tomatoes and toss. Add the pasta water, little by little, if you need to loosen the sauce.
• Season the pasta with salt and pepper and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Toss scallions with oil, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Line up scallions side by side on a work surface and thread skewers, 1 at a time, crosswise through all scallions to form a solid rectangle. (Skewers should be inserted about 2 inches from each end.) Grill on lightly oiled grill rack, uncovered, turning over once or twice, until softened and charred in patches, 4 to 5 minutes total. Transfer scallions to a platter and squeeze lemon evenly over them, then remove skewers.

Steps:

• Heat a grill to medium-high. Stand the cauliflower on its core, then slice vertically into 1/2-inch thick slabs. (It's OK if they don't stay together.) Transfer large pieces that won't fall through grill grates to a baking sheet. Drizzle generously all over with oil and season generously with salt. For any small bits that would fall through the grates, coarsely chop them and transfer to a medium bowl.
• To the bowl of chopped cauliflower, add the 1/4 cup olive oil, dill, lime juice, chile and peanuts. Stir to combine and season generously with salt.
• When ready to grill, clean the grates with a grill brush, then lightly grease the grates. Add the cauliflower slabs and cook on one side until deeply charred and crisp-tender underneath only, 8 to 10 minutes. (If using a gas grill, close the lid.) Use a spatula to transfer the cauliflower, grilled-side up, to a platter.
• Spoon the dill-peanut sauce over the grilled cauliflower. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Bring a large saucepan half-full of well-salted water to a boil. Trim the scallions and cut off all but 2 inches of their dark green tops. Place them in the boiling water for 1 minute. Immediately drain the scallions and plunge them into a large bowl of ice water to stop the cooking and set their color. When cooled, drain again and dry between layers of paper towels.
• Place a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the butter and oil. When the butter has melted and the pan is very hot, add the scallions. Cook, tossing gently, until the scallions just begin to brown, about 1 minute. Immediately sprinkle them with sea salt and transfer to dinner plates or a small platter and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill to high heat and lightly oil grate.
• Cut zucchini into thin lengthwise planks; brush with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper. Arrange on grate without crowding.
• Grill until tender and lightly charred, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a rimmed plate.
• Stir together tomatoes, extra-virgin olive oil, apple cider vinegar, and mint in a bowl. Smash some of the tomatoes to release their juices. Stir once more and spoon over zucchini.
