Roasted Onion, Cilantro and Celery Gremolata

There’s only one way to duplicate this amazing and unique gremolata. You must begin with Olive This! Cilantro and Roasted Onion Olive Oil which pulls it all together into a balanced bite of excitement. If you close your eyes, you swear you are eating true roasted onion sprinkled with cilantro. Just get to chopping and combine the short list of ingredients, and serve ladled over pork, chicken, or even a hearty fish like cod. I served over roasted pulled chicken on a bed of tri-color quinoa, but the possibilities are endless.

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 6-inch celery stalks, diced very small
  • 1 English cucumber 4 ½ inch in length, seeded and diced very small

  • Zest of one large lemon
  • 5 teaspoons fresh squeezed lemon juice
  • ¼ teaspoon coriander powder
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 3 tablespoons Olive This! Cilantro & Roasted Onion Olive Oil
  • Handful of fresh chopped cilantro for garnish

DIRECTIONS

Mix all ingredients in a small mixing bowl. Serve over warm roasted chicken pieces and tri-color quinoa. Or serve over pork, a hearty fish like cod, or even spoon over mashed potatoes, or mix into rice or even orzo, to create a fantastic side dish with steak or hamburger! – Will keep in fridge for about a week.
