THROWDOWN THURSDAY - ROMESCO SAUCE

TIME TO THROW DOWN A RECIPE RIGHT OUT OF THE FORK AND HOSE CO. KITCHEN.  WE LOVE SHARING HEALTHY RECIPES WITH OUR FRIENDS AT THE FIREFIGHTER THROWDOWN AND THIS ONE IS PERFECT FOR A THROWDOWN THURSDAY! ROMESCO SAUCE IS TYPICALLY MADE WITH RED PEPPERS AND ALMONDS, ORIGINATING FROM THE CATALONIA REGION IN NORTHEAST SPAIN.  AND WHILE IT WAS ORIGINALLY USED ON FISH BY THE LOCAL FISHERMAN, IT IS ALSO GREAT ON GRILLED CHICKEN AND STEAK.

2 ROASTED PEPPERS, from a jar
1 GARLIC CLOVE
1/2 CUP OF ALMONDS
