PRESSURE-COOKER TEQUILA SALSA CHICKEN



Pressure-Cooker Tequila Salsa Chicken image

I had this dish at a local Mexican restaurant when celebrating a friend's birthday. I fell in love with the spicy, smoky flavor from the tequila and decided to try Instant Pot salsa chicken at home. Boy, was it a success! It's also great stuffed into flour tortillas or for making nachos. —Trisha Kruse, Eagle, Idaho

TEQUILA LIME PINEAPPLE SALSA



Tequila Lime Pineapple Salsa image

Saw this in People magazine while I was in a waiting room. I will have to find someone from whom to scrounge some tequila, as I don't normally buy that. If you buy jalapenos ahead of time, they will turn red - much cheaper than buying the red ones. I try to pick a couple that are already turning, but are still in the green bin. Recipe from Border Grill in LA. Please note that the nutritional information will be off, as you use only half of the pineapple.

Categories     Pineapple

Time 42m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pineapple
1/4 cup tequila
3 tablespoons lime juice, divided
1 teaspoon brown sugar
canola oil
1/2 red onion, cut into 1/4 inch dice
1 green jalapeno, minced
1 red jalapeno chile, minced
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Remove rind from pineapple, core, and cut into 1/2 inch thick slices.
  • Combine tequila, 1 tbl lime juice, and pineapple. Marinate for 30 minutes.
  • Drain and toss with brown sugar.
  • Coat saute pan with canola oil and heat on medium high. Add pineapple slices and cook, turning frequently, until caramelized, about 6 minutes. Dice half of the slices into 1/4 inch pieces. (Refrigerate remaining slices for another use. I would probably not bother marinating half of the slices to begin with).
  • Combine the diced pineapple with the remaining lime juice and the rest of the ingredients in a bowl. Let salsa sit for 30 minutes before serving.

Estimated Reading Time 4 mins
  • In medium pot, add 2 cups of water and bring to a boil. Add cascabel and arbol chilies to the pot and boil for 5-7 minutes or until soft. With a slotted spoon, remove chilies from the pot and reserve a half cup of the cooking water. Remove stems from chilies and add to a blender, making sure to add the seeds.
  • Cut a quarter of an onion into thick slices and place in a cast iron pan along with the garlic clove, tomatoes and tomatillos. Roast ingredients over a medium flame. Once garlic and onion have a nice char, remove from the pan and place in the blender along with the chilies. Continue to roast the tomatoes and tomatillos until they are charred evenly on all sides, then add to the blender.
  • Add the reserved cooking water to the blender and pulse all the ingredients 3 or 4 times for 10-15 seconds until you have a nice salsa texture. If you like your salsa very smooth, pulse for longer.
  • Place a 2-quart pot on the stove. Add olive oil and heat until the oil is smoking. Add the salsa mixture from the blender and cook over medium heat until it starts bubbling. Add the tequila and cook for an additional 3 minutes. Turn the heat off and add the salt. Pour the salsa into a bowl or container, and allow it to cool in the refrigerator.
