Bobbys Grilled Tomato Jam Recipes

TANDOORI SPICED CHICKEN BREAST WITH GRILLED TOMATO JAM AND HERBED YOGURT SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium-high. Combine all spices and the oil in a medium bowl to make a paste. Rub a thin layer of the spice paste onto 1 side of each chicken breast. Grill for 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until slightly charred and just cooked through. Remove from the grill, let rest 5 minutes, and cut lengthwise into 1/2-inch thick slices. Serve openface on pitas: the chicken slices, a few dollops of Tomato Jam, and a drizzle of Herbed Yogurt.
• Heat grill to high. Brush tomatoes and serrano with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill tomatoes and serrano on all sides until charred. Remove from the grill and coarsely chop.
• Heat oil in a medium saucepan on the grates of the grill or on the side burners. Add the onion and cook until soft. Add the tomatoes, serrano, balsamic vinegar, and saffron and cook until thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a bowl and let cool to room temperature before serving.
• Place all ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Refrigerate if not using immediately.

ITALIAN CHICKEN SLIDERS WITH TOMATO JAM

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add the onion and sweat for 3 minutes to soften. Stir in the garlic and let cook for another 2 minutes. Add all the remaining jam ingredients, except the parsley. Stir in 1/4 cup of water along with the onions and bring to a simmer. Turn the heat to low and let simmer for 25 to 30 minutes until most of the liquid has reduced and the tomatoes are soft. Remove from the heat and stir in the parsley.
• Pound out each piece of chicken until it's about 1/4-inch thick. Slice each breast into 6 pieces. Season generously with salt and pepper, to taste
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, fry the pancetta until brown and crispy. Remove to a plate lined with a paper towel.
• In the same pan that the pancetta was cooked in, fry the chicken breast pieces over medium-high heat, in batches, for 2 minutes. Flip and cook for 2 more minutes. Top each piece of chicken with a slice of mozzarella cheese, cover with a lid and cook until the cheese is melted.
• To assemble, put the chicken breast pieces onto the bottom half of each roll. Top with a slice of pancetta, then about 1 tablespoon of the tomato jam and a basil leaf. Cover with the top half of the roll and serve.

BOBBY'S GRILLED TOMATO JAM

Steps:

• Brush the tomatoes and serrano with 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the tomatoes and chile on all sides until you get a char. This won't take long. Remove from the grill and let it cool until you can handle them. Give the tomatoes and chile a rough chop. (I seed my pepper to cut the heat level. Remember to wear gloves if you do!).
• Heat up the remaining 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a medium saucepan. Toss in the onion and cook until the onion becomes soft. Add in the chopped tomatoes, chile, balsamic and saffron. (Sub a bit of turmeric if you don't have saffron.) Cook the mixture down until it gets thick. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature before you serve. After the mixture was cooled, I took an immersion blender and blended it just a bit, so it was a bit smoother but still had chunks, as a personal preference.

ROTISSERIE LAMB WITH MINTED CUCUMBER CHUTNEY AND TOMATO JAM

Steps:

• Marinade: Marinate the lamb 4 hours or overnight. Preheat grill, cook over rotisserie. Cook to 140 degrees for medium.
• MINTED CUCUMBER CHUTNEY: Place the drained yogurt in a medium bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and season with salt and pepper to taste. Let sit at room temperature.
• TOMATO-EGGPLANT JAM: Brush the eggplant with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Grill until just cooked through and lightly golden brown. Cut the eggplant into 1/2 inch dice, place in a medium bowl and toss with the remaining ingredients.

GRILLED TURKEY SLIDERS WITH TOMATO JAM

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
• Mix the ground turkey, ricotta, mustard, shallot, basil, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl. Form into 12 small 1/2-inch thick patties.
• Brush the grill grates with olive oil with a clean tea towel to keep the turkey from sticking. Grill the patties for 4 minutes, and then flip and continue to cook the other side for another 3 minutes. Place the rolls on the warmer rack to toast during the last 3 minutes of grilling.
• To assemble burgers, place a patty between the buns and top with lettuce and Tomato Jam.
• Add all the ingredients to a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes have dissolved and what remains is a thick jam-like consistency, about 1 hour. Cool before serving. The jam can be stored in an airtight mason jar for up to 2 weeks in your refrigerator.

GRILLED CHEESE WITH SMOKY TOMATO JAM RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the tomato jam: In a medium saucepan, combine the cherry tomatoes, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, ginger, salt, cumin, paprika, and red pepper flakes. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 45-60 minutes, or until most of the liquid has evaporated and the mixture has thickened to a jam-like consistency. Remove the pot from the heat and let the jam cool. The jam will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• Make the grilled cheese: Spread ½ tablespoon of butter on one side of each slice of bread. Sprinkle the buttered sides with ¼ teaspoon pepper each.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Place one slice of bread, buttered side down, in the skillet. Spread ¼ cup (60 g) tomato jam over the bread, then layer the Cabot Seriously Sharp Cheddar on top and cover with the remaining slice of bread, buttered side out. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the bottom slice of bread is golden brown, then use a spatula to flip the sandwich and cook for another 3-5 minutes on the other side, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is completely melted. Remove from the pan and let rest for 1 minute before slicing.
• Enjoy!

TOMATO JAM GRILLED CHEESE

Steps:

• Place 2 slices of the cheese on 1 slice of bread and top with the tomato jam; sprinkle with a little salt and pepper. Add the remaining 2 slices of cheese, then press the remaining slice of bread onto it.
• Heat a skillet over medium heat. Meanwhile, butter the top slice of bread. Press the sandwich with a spatula or steak weight, buttered-side down, onto the hot skillet. Press until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has started to melt. Butter the slice of bread that is now facing up, then flip the sandwich. Cook until golden brown and the cheese is gooey, 3 to 4 minutes total. Slice and enjoy!
• In a nonreactive medium pot, combine the tomatoes with the sugar, citrus zest and juice and cinnamon stick. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture gels on a spoon (it will look like a thin syrup), about 30 minutes. Skim any foam off the top, then pour the jam into two or three 1-cup jars. Let the jam cool to room temperature before using. Refrigerate for up to 2 weeks. Makes about 2 cups.
