Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
4 scallions -- thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves -- minced
1 fresh hot chile -- seeded and minced
1/2 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt

In a small bowl, combine the scallions with the garlic, chile, lemon zest and cayenne, mashing slightly with the back of a spoon. Stir in the olive oil and salt.

Makes 1/4 cup (4 one-tablespoon servings)

The paste can be refrigerated for up to 2 days.

Lightly brush the paste onto tofu, shrimp, steaks, chicken or pork before grilling. Working a little of this paste into ground meat, steaks or chops adds incredible flavor. Grace Parisi likes to stuff the paste right into a patty of ground beef with a hunk of Brie to make a super-luxurious cheeseburger.
