I found this recipe while browsing lamb recipes on the internet. I do very little Moroccan cooking so it intrigued me and I figured I'd give it a try. The cumin, cardamom, cinnamon, allspice and ginger go very well with the strong flavor of lamb while the cayenne gives it a little kick.
Acorn squash pie has similar textures and flavors to pumpkin pie but it has a slightly different color. The pie filling is very lightly sweetened with honey. The pie is garnished with a mildly spicy walnut streusel and honey sweetened whipped cream.
Have you ever wondered about making your own ketchup from scratch? Well, I did. I realized how "monotone" the bottled stuff is when I tasted this scratch made spicy ketchup. All of the flavors are very distinct and it contains no high fructose corn syrup or any substance called "flavoring."
Porcini and Chanterelle mushrooms work well in this spicy recipe for miso soup. Miso soup is the ultimate Japanese comfort food but you don't have to go out to enjoy it. Miso shouldn't be a mystery so don't be afraid to try it. After all, it's a really simple recipe with only a few ingredients.
Eggplant, spicy pepper flakes, and the rich flavors of olives and capers highlight this recipe for a non-traditional tapenade. It's great on sandwiches, meat or fish. This could be used as a dip with pita or crostini as well.
I wanted to include classic flavors to compliment lamb in this spicy lamb burger recipe. Mint, goat cheese and a touch of eggplant tapenade did the trick. Maybe it's weird; maybe it's has a bit of Greek inspiration; I liked it and so did everyone else.
This spicy chocolate ice cream recipe is fantastic. It's cold, creamy, rich and chocolatey just as it should be but at the very end just after you swallow the cayenne sneaks up and gives you a little bite. The cinnamon adds a pleasantly unusual element and compliments the chocolate well.
These Grilled Eggplant, Red Onion and Tomato Stack Thingies with Goat Cheese are an example of what happens when my stomache starts talking to me late at night. I saw a photo of something similar a while ago and it inspired me. Well, the mental imagery was recalled at 10pm as I peered into my fridge and realized that there was an eggplant peering back at me.
Chicken breasts sliced thin and simmered in a sauce made with lemon, capers and white wine. Jalapeno peppers give the chicken a subtle heat while the cayenne pepper flakes provide some little heat explosions. I've been making this recipe for many years and it's always a little different. It's the kind of recipe where you eyeball everything or use up an extra teaspoon of capers so they don't get wasted. Enjoy!
Kale is a mystery to some people and others know it as a bitter green. This recipe shows how simple it is to cook kale and cuts through the bitterness with the tang of red wine vinegar. Sprinkling a little sea salt will further mask some of the bitterness and the spicy kick from pepper flakes gives it a pleasant burn.
This is my version of a recipe from Bon Appetit Magazine. Onions, butter, sage and spicy toasted bread... I really wowed myself and my guests with this spicy recipe. It's hearty and sweet with a little cayenne pepper kick from the bread. Carmelized onions drizzled with vinegar add some tart flavors and the sage butter sets the whole thing off.
A rustic and refreshing summer heirloom tomato salad drizzled with spicy oil and sweet balsamic reduction. The beautiful color and subtle flavors will be sure to please. Tomato Caprese is super easy to make and I'm always baffled by those funny lookin' tomatoes and how good they taste.
This recipe is a twisted, deconstructed, frozen rendition of Prosciutto e Melone with typical ChileBomb flair. Spicy, salty prosciutto heats it up while the refreshing smooth and sweet Melon Basil sorbet quenches the flames. This is the perfect appetizer for an end of summer out door party. You could also leave out the prosciutto and serve the sorbet for dessert if you prefer but it wouldn't have the same "kick."
The combination of sweet honey, tart lime, spicy thai chiles and fiery cayenne pepper flakes balance with the crisp coolness of cucumber and mint, in this recipe. Simple, light and refreshing - a great counterpart to a rich main dish.
We almost never do anything the easy way but this recipe is simple and makes a really fresh, spicy Bloody Mary. Some Dave's Hurtin' Habanero Hot Sauce and a pinch of freshly ground cayenne pepper really heats this one up and gives it a very distinctive flavor - the perfect way to get a late start on Sunday.
