Cook the mixture over high heat until the liquid is reduced by half - about 5 minutes. Stir in the red pepper, reduce the heat to medium, adn simmer until the pepper is tender - about 3 minutes more. Meanwhile, cook the scallions. Pour enough water into a large skillet to fill it about 1 inch deep, and bring it to a boil. Cook the scallions in the water until they are tender - 3 to 4 minutes. Drain them well. To finish the sauce, pour the red pepper mixture into a blender or food processor, and add the oil, salt and black pepper. Puree the sauce until it is smooth - about 1 minute - and transfer it to a small bowl. Arrange the scallions on individual plates. Garnish each plate with a lime wedge. Spoon a little sauce over each serving and pass the remaining sauce separately. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
