Grilled Red Trout With Ranchero Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium-high heat.
• Rinse fillets and pat dry. Slice onion into 1/8-inch rings, and set aside. Slice lemon into 1/8-inch rings, remove seeds and set aside.
• Rub 1 clove of crushed garlic over the fillet. Place fillet in the center of the aluminum foil. Top with 1 pat of butter, 2 to 3 onion rings, then season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cover fish with 1 or 2 lemon rings. Fold aluminum foil around fish to create a sealed package. Repeat for each fillet.
• Place packets on hot grill for 5 minutes or until cooked through, careful not to overcook the fillets. Remove fish from foil, plate and serve immediately.

Steps:

• On a gas range or under a broiler, roast the green, red and poblano peppers until well charred. Let cool. Stem and seed the charred peppers. Coarsely chop and set aside.
• In a spice grinder or with a mortar and pestle, finely grind the whole guajillo and pasilla chiles and set aside.
• In a large saucepan, warm the oil over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, covered, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the guajillo and pasilla chiles, cumin, chili powder, oregano, thyme, black pepper, salt and garlic. Stir and cook until the spices become fragrant and are fully coated in oil, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Add the tomatoes, green chiles and sugar. Stir and continue to cook until the sauce starts to simmer. Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue to cook until the vegetables soften and the flavors come together, 30 to 40 minutes. Taste and add additional salt and pepper as needed.

• For the ranchero chicken: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. In a small Dutch oven or medium sized roasting pan combine the chicken, stock, salt, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder and lime juice with 2 cups of the ranchero sauce. (Reserve remaining ranchero sauce for another use.) Stir and top with the lid or seal well with aluminum foil and braise in the oven, 2 1/2 hours. Remove from the oven and let cool enough to handle the chicken.
• Shred the chicken with two forks or your hands. Strain the braising liquid and add the strained solids back in with the shredded chicken. Reserve enough liquid to moisten the mixture. Return to the pan and keep warm in a low oven until ready to serve.
• For the tostada shells: Meanwhile, line a baking sheet with paper towels. In a small frying pan, heat 1/2-inch oil until hot. Add 1 tortilla and cook, flipping once a minute, until crispy and golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to the paper towels and repeat with remaining tortillas.
• Serve the chicken on the tostada shells and top with avocado and queso fresco.

Steps:

• In corn tortilla layer iceberg lettuce, Jack cheese, sunny-side up eggs. Top with Ranchero sauce.
• In a skillet over medium heat, combine tomatoes, jalapeno, onion and garlic. Add the oregano, chili powder, and salt and allow to cook about 10 to 12 minutes, or until onions are translucent. If sauce appears too thick, dilute with up to 1/2 cup water.
• Ladle half of sauce into a food processor or blender and puree. Combine with remaining half of sauce and serve warm.

Steps:

• In a hot saute pan coated with oil, saute the tofu and vegetables until al dente, about 6 to 8 minutes. Add the salsa and cook the mixture until it is hot. Serve the tofu ranchero over a corn tortilla and top it with shredded cheese.

Steps:

• Salt and pepper the meat side of the fish, spray with cooking spray if desired. Place skin side down on a hot grill. Cook about 30 seconds and flip over. The skin should separate from the meat. Cook 1 to 2 minutes, and turn over, to finish cooking the other side of the fillet. When cooked through, around 1 minute more, depending on the temperature of your grill, remove from heat. Serve hot with ranchero sauce. Ranchero Sauce: Saute onion, red pepper and poblano chile until soft and translucent. Add the tomatoes, bring to a boil. Add seasonings. Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. Serve hot.
