Instructions
Smoky Romesco
- Place roasted peppers, almonds, garlic, sherry vinegar, smoked paprika, cayenne, black pepper and salt in the pitcher of a blender.
- Blend on high, slowly drizzling in extra virgin olive oil. Transfer to a holding vessel and refrigerate. Hold for service.
Service
- In a small bowl, combine smoked paprika, salt and pepper. Season diced chicken with 1 tablespoon of smoked paprika mixture. Save remaining seasoning mixture for later.
- In a large saute pan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil on high. Add cherry tomatoes and saute until skins have burst and started to brown. Remove from pan and transfer to a bowl or hotel pan.
- Reduce heat to medium and add remaining oil. Add diced chicken and sear on all sides until cooked through. Stir in Smoky Romesco, chicken broth, and remaining seasoning blend. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer and add spinach. Cook until all spinach is wilted. Gently stir in burst tomatoes.
- Serve over pappardelle pasta and garnish with toasted slivered almonds and Parmesan cheese.
Chef Tip: Smoky Romesco can be served as dip for an appetizer, a finishing sauce, or a spread on sandwiches or wraps.
