A very non traditional idea i had was like I made this chipotle/red bell pepper/pimento puree with basil and cilantro and seasoned it in an attempt to approximate piri piri sauce (the chipotle was too smoky but otherwise it was very good), and that was for some chicken that I made at work as like a last minute condiment to go out on the side. The chicken was marinated in a lot of chili powders and lemon juice. It was supposed to be piri piri chicken but like idk if you can call it that without piri piri peppers
Anyway, it was all really good, and I wanted to take the pepper puree and use it as a pizza sauce, top it with the pizza cheese blend we have, chopped chicken, red onion and idk mushrooms or something else, maybe some parmesan, and finish it with a drizzle of the pepper puree at the end
Idk i think it’d be really good but with all the prep and cleaning i had to do I never got around to trying it out with the leftovers I had
That sounds interesting. I did a vodka sauce but instead of tomato roasted red pepper recently and holy fucking hell did that go over well. I’m Beethoven out hear with this stuff cause I can’t taste my own food.
the sauce I made tasted very much like this roasted red pepper coulis my sous chef made a while back, except smoky because of the chipotle, and not overpowered with what I think was him putting in wayy too much sumac. That might be something you could look into
I think the real sauce is more spicy because of the piri piri peppers and less smoky, it’s just got whatever smoke from the bit of chili powder/paprika put in, but idk
it’d probably go good with vegan meat like the seitan chicken strips we get, or like as a way to marinate tofu or vegetables for pizza
I’m Beethoven out hear with this stuff cause I can’t taste my own food.
yeah that’s me with seafood, I don’t like any seafood so every time i get good feedback on a shrimp/cod/salmon dish I am like “yes thank you cooking jesus for letting me not fuck this up”
Sometimes I like the smell of the shrimp roasting but idk there’s just something so off about seafood, can’t like it
