Arteflame Romesco Sauce Recipe

Smoky and nutty Romesco sauce made on the Arteflame grill. Perfect for pairing with grilled meats, seafood, or vegetables with bold Spanish flavors.

Introduction

Romesco sauce is a rich, smoky, and tangy Spanish sauce made with roasted peppers, almonds, and garlic. Preparing it on the Arteflame grill enhances its smoky flavor, making it a perfect pairing for grilled meats, seafood, or vegetables.

Ingredients

  • 2 red bell peppers
  • 1 large tomato
  • 2 cloves garlic (unpeeled)
  • 1/4 cup blanched almonds
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 slice of rustic bread (toasted)
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional, for heat)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper (to taste)

The Sear Makes the Steak, And Arteflame Makes the Sear

Why settle for low-temperature searing when you can achieve steakhouse-quality results with an Arteflame? Gas grills take longer, drying out your steak, while the Arteflame sears at 1000°F in just one minute, locking in juices for perfection.

Instructions

Step 1: Fire Up the Arteflame Grill

  1. Light the Arteflame grill by soaking vegetable oil-soaked napkins under firewood and lighting them. Let the grill heat for about 20 minutes.
  2. Place the peppers, tomato, garlic cloves, and almonds on the flat cooktop for roasting.

Step 2: Roast the Ingredients

  1. Peppers and Tomato: Roast the red bell peppers and tomato, turning occasionally, until the skin is charred and blistered (about 6-8 minutes for peppers and 4-5 minutes for the tomato).
  2. Garlic: Roast the garlic cloves in their skins for 5-6 minutes, turning frequently.
  3. Almonds: Toast the almonds until lightly browned and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Remove all roasted ingredients from the grill and let them cool slightly.

Step 3: Peel and Prep

  1. Peel the skin off the roasted peppers and tomato. Remove the seeds from the peppers.
  2. Peel the garlic cloves.

Step 4: Blend the Sauce

  1. In a food processor or blender, combine the roasted peppers, tomato, garlic, toasted almonds, and toasted bread.
  2. Add the olive oil, red wine vinegar, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper.
  3. Blend until smooth, adding a splash of water if needed to adjust the consistency.

Step 5: Taste and Serve

  1. Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning with more salt, vinegar, or paprika as desired.
  2. Serve the romesco sauce warm or at room temperature with grilled dishes.

1,000°F Sear for Steakhouse-Quality Perfection

Only The Arteflame’s center grill grate reaches 1,000°F, delivering the intense heat needed to sear steaks to perfection while keeping the inside juicy and as rare as you like it.

Tips

  • Customize Heat: Add more cayenne pepper for a spicier sauce.
  • Smooth or Chunky: Blend the sauce until your desired texture is achieved.
