Calories: 25kcal
Ingredients
- 2 cups red bell peppers, washed and dried, seeded, roughly chopped
- ¾ cup tomatoes, washed and dried, seeded, roughly chopped
- ¾ cup red onion, roughly chopped
- 1 tablespoon red jalapeño pepper washed and dried, seeded, roughly chopped
- 5 sprigs fresh thyme, washed and dried, leaves removed from stems
- ¼ cup dry red wine
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon sweet paprika
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- honey, salt, and freshly ground pepper to taste (click here for How to Season to Taste)
Instructions
For dressing (and marinade)
- Add the first 5 ingredients to a powerful blender and purée.
- Pour the mixture into a bowl and then add wine, honey, paprika and cinnamon.
For the sauce
- After you've used this as a marinade, you can turn it into a sauce. Simply remove whatever you've marinated (probably chicken or steak), and then pour the remaining marinade into a small sauce pan. Place it over high heat and bring it to a boil. Then reduce the heat to low and simmer until it's reduced by about ¼, about 15 minutes.
- Season generously to taste with salt, pepper and a bit more honey if necessary. (Here's How to Season to Taste.)
Notes
To take this from a marinade to a sauce, 15 minutes will be added to the prep time.
