Blistered Shishito Peppers with Somm Seasoning for Rosé Wines and Creamy Cilantro-Lime Sauce
Recipe from the Clif Family Culinary Team
INGREDIENTS:
2 pints Shishito peppers
High smoke point cooking oil (grapeseed, peanut, coconut, avocado or canola)
Clif Family Somm Seasoning for Rosé Wines
Lime
Creamy Cilantro-Lime Sauce
½ cup mayonnaise
½ cup sour cream
1 lime, zested and juiced
½ cup finely chopped cilantro
Salt to taste
DIRECTIONS:
In a small mixing bowl, combine creamy cilantro-lime ingredients and adjust seasoning to taste. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.
Preheat a cast iron skillet to the highest setting. Once the skillet starts to lightly smoke, add peppers and a drizzle of cooking oil and toss to coat. Let sit and allow to lightly char and blister. Shake the pan to toss the peppers around. Transfer to a mixing bowl, and while still hot, drizzle a little lime juice on them and liberally season with Clif Family Somm Seasoning for Rosé Wines. Transfer to a serving dish.
Serve with creamy cilantro-lime sauce and a chilled glass of Rosé.
