Jalapeno Pepper Jelly Glaze Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°. Place green beans in a 15x10x1-in. baking pan coated with cooking spray; toss with oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Roast 15-20 minutes or until tender and lightly browned, stirring occasionally., Meanwhile, sprinkle pork chops with the remaining salt and pepper. Place a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium heat. Add chops; cook, uncovered, 4 minutes. Turn chops over; spread tops with half of the jalapeno jelly., Cook, uncovered, 2-3 minutes longer or until a thermometer reads 145°. Turn chops over; spread tops with remaining jelly. Let stand 5 minutes. Serve with green beans.

Steps:

• Combine the green bell pepper and 12 jalapeno peppers in the container of a food processor or blender. Process until finely chopped. This can be done in batches, if the peppers do not fit.
• Transfer the peppers to a large saucepan, and stir in the cider vinegar. Bring to a boil, and let simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. Strain the mixture through at least 2 layers of cheesecloth, and discard pulp. You should have about 1 cup of liquid.
• Return the liquid to the saucepan, and stir in the salt and sugar until dissolved. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. When the mixture comes to a rolling boil (one that cannot be stirred down), boil for one minute, then stir in the liquid pectin.
• Stir in the remaining jalapeno peppers, and ladle into sterile jars leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Seal jars in a hot water bath. Refrigerate jelly after seal is broken.

Steps:

• Melt the jelly or preserves over low heat or in a microwave oven.
• Stir in flavoring ingredients.
• Note: Chunky preserves melt more readily when they are first pureed in a blender or food processor.

Steps:

• Wash and dry duck breasts. Mix together salt, pepper, thyme and rosemary. Sprinkle the mixture over the skin side of the breasts, and refrigerate for several hours or let stand about 1/2 hour before cooking.
• Make the glaze: combine the shallots, vinegar and stock in a small pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer until liquid is reduced to about a cup. Whisk in the pepper jelly, and then the butter. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add the jalapeno, if desired. Add more vinegar if sauce is too sweet.
• Grill or saute skin-side down for about 6 minutes; then turn and cook about 2 minutes longer, depending on how rare you want the breasts. Remove from heat; let stand about 2 minutes; then, slice on the diagonal into 5 or 6 pieces and arrange on plate, skin side up. Spoon glaze over the top.
