Tequila Chili Spiked Vegetables Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook, crumbling it as you go, until browned. Remove from the skillet and drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Pour off any excess fat from the skillet.
• Add the onion and bell peppers to the skillet and cook over medium-high heat until the veggies begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and stir in 1/4 cup of the tequila. Turn the heat back on and cook until the vegetables are golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Meanwhile, stir the tomatoes and remaining 1 tablespoon tequila together in a small bowl and set aside to marinate for a few minutes.
• To build, cover the bottom of a medium ovenproof skillet with a third of the Monterey Jack and Cheddar. Add half of the chorizo, then another third of the cheese. Next, add as much of the veggie mixture as you'd like (you may have a little left over). Add almost all of the remaining cheese, the rest of the chorizo and then whatever cheese you have left. Sprinkle the top very lightly with chili powder.
• Bake, starting to watch it 4 to 5 minutes in, until the cheese is totally melted, hot and slightly bubbling...but before the cheese starts to firm up/harden. (In other words, you still want the cheese to be extra gooey.)
• Drain the tomatoes.
• Remove the skillet from the oven and top with the spiked tomatoes and cilantro. Serve immediately with tortilla chips. It's best when piping hot! Wrap a cloth around the skillet handle so guests won't burn themselves.

Steps:

• Brown the ground beef in a large pot over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon while it cooks; drain. Stir in the tomatoes, kidney beans, onion, garlic, tomato sauce, tequila, chili powder, cumin, salt, and cayenne pepper; simmer 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Wash radishes-leave on the greens and arrange on a plate.
• Peel jicama and cut into 1/2 x 1/2 inch sticks-arrange.
• Peel carrots and cut into sticks.
• Mix together the tequila and line juice.
• In another bowl mix the chili powder and salt.
• To serve dip the veg into the tequila lime, then the chili salt and eat.

Steps:

• Cut off 1/4 inch from blossom end (opposite stem end) of each tomato and with a 1/4-teaspoon measure carefully scoop out seeds. Wearing rubber gloves, seed and mince jalapeño.
• In a small saucepan sprinkle gelatin over vegetable-juice cocktail or tomato juice and let stand 1 minute to soften. Heat mixture over moderately low heat, stirring, until gelatin is dissolved. Remove pan from heat and stir in jalapeño and all remaining ingredients except tomatoes. Cool filling slightly.
• Using a small spoon and holding each tomato over saucepan, spoon filling into tomatoes, arranging tomatoes on a platter as filled. Chill tomatoes, covered, 4 hours, or until filling is set, and up to 1 day.
• Garnish each tomato with a coriander leaf.

Steps:

• Combine ingredients in a clean one-liter jar with a lid. Store in the refrigerator and shake daily for 2 days until infused, then strain and discard solids.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, brown beef with chopped onion and lime zest. Drain. Place skillet back on heat and add tequila and cilantro and lime juice and salt. Simmer 10 minutes. Stir in Chili Seasoning packages. Once mixed transfer beef to Crockpot. Add tomatoes and beans. Crockpot on High for 4 hours. Garnish with fresh cilantro and slice of lime.

Steps:

• Mash bread and milk into paste in large bowl using fork. Mix in ground turkey, salt and pepper, using hands. Heat oil in 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat, until shimmering. Add onions, chili powder, tomato paste, garlic, cumin, oregano and red pepper flakes and cook until vegetables are softened and lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in turkey mixture and cook, breaking up any large pieces with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink, about 3 minutes. Stir in tomato sauce, scraping up any browned bits; transfer to slow cooker. Stir diced tomatoes with juice, beans, 3 tablespoons tequila, soy sauce, honey, and chipotles into the slow cooker. Cover and cook until turkey is tender, 4 to 6 hours, on Low. Let chili settle for 5 minutes, then remove fat from surface using a large spoon. Stir in remaining tablespoon tequila, lime zest, and lime juice. Season with salt, pepper, tequila and lime juice to taste and serve. Optional: garnish with diced avocado and sour cream.
