Red Pepper Cream Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat broiler. Lightly coat the red peppers with olive oil. Grill peppers under the broiler until the skin is blackened, and the flesh has softened slightly. Place peppers in a paper bag or resealable plastic bag to cool for approximately 45 minutes.
• Remove the seeds and skin from the peppers (the skin should come off the peppers easily now). Cut peppers into small pieces.
• In a skillet, cook and stir the garlic, basil, and red peppers in 3 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat. Cook for 10 minutes, so that the flavors mix.
• Place mixture in blender (careful it is hot), and puree to desired consistency. Return puree to skillet, and reheat to a boil. Stir in the half-and-half and the Romano cheese; cook and stir until the cheese melts. Add the butter, and stir until melted. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a saucepan, add the peppers, cover and simmer over very low heat, for about 20 minutes or until tender. Puree the cooked peppers through a food mill to remove the skins. Season to taste with salt and pepper. The sauce is ready to be used like this over steak, grilled polenta, poultry, lamb or grilled seafood or can be enhanced with a few tablespoonfuls of the possible additions.

Steps:

• Peppers -- Simply add the peppers to a food processor and puree.
• Sauce -- In a small sauce pan, add the cream, peppers and simmer on medium low for about 15-20 minutes. It will naturally thicken. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Char peppers over flame or in broiler until blackened on all sides. Enclose in paper bag. Let stand 10 minutes. Peel, seed and coarsely chop peppers. Transfer to processor. Add pine nuts, Parmesan, olive oil and garlic and process until peppers are finely chopped. Transfer mixture to large bowl. Stir in whipping cream. Season with salt and pepper. (Sauce can be prepared 6 hours ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onion and garlic until soft, about 10 minutes. Add roasted peppers and saute until heated through. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Place mixture in the bowl of a food processor with stock and all but 2 tablespoons of the feta. Process until combined and smooth, about 30 seconds. Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup pasta water. Toss pasta with sauce, adding pasta water by the tablespoon, if needed. Sauce should cling nicely to pasta. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Divide among pasta bowls. Sprinkle with parsley and remaining feta cheese.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Place red bell peppers cut-side down on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
• Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until the skin blackens.
• Remove peppers from the oven and transfer with tongs to a sealable container or bowl. Cover and let cool for 5 minutes.
• Once cool enough to handle, peel the blackened skins from the peppers and place into a blender or food processor. Discard the skins.
• To the blender, add the avocado, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, and nutritional yeast. Blend until smooth, adding more olive oil or seasoning as desired.
• Serve either chilled or heated up.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Combine the bell peppers and heavy cream in a pot and bring to boil over medium heat; reduce heat to medium-low and continue simmering, stirring occasionally, until the cream reduces to about 1 cup, about 30 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the paprika, lemon juice, salt, white pepper, and cayenne pepper.
• Pour the sauce into a blender. Hold the lid firmly with a towel while blending, using a few quick pulses to get the sauce moving before leaving it on to blend until smooth. Serve hot.
