Brussels Sprouts Salad With Pistachios And Warm Bacon Vinaigrette Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the pancetta and cook, stirring often, until rendered and crisp, about 6 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
• Increase the heat to medium high and add the Brussels sprouts, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper to the pan. Cook, stirring often, until bright green and slightly wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and drizzle in the vinegar; toss well to coat. Transfer to a bowl and top with the pancetta.

Steps:

• Trim Brussels sprouts. Using the slicing blade on a food processor or a knife, thinly slice sprouts. Transfer to a large bowl. In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp, stirring occasionally. Remove with a slotted spoon; drain on paper towels. Discard drippings, reserving 1/4 cup in pan., Add onion to drippings; cook and stir over medium-high heat until tender, 3-5 minutes. Stir in vinegar, honey and mustard. Cook and stir 1 minute. Add bacon and apples to Brussels sprouts. Drizzle with onion mixture; toss to coat. Refrigerate at least 3 hours before serving.

Steps:

• Peel off and discard the darker outer leaves of the sprouts and trim any discolored areas from the stem ends. Cut the sprouts in half lengthwise, then slice them crosswise very thinly-about 1/16 inch. (Alternatively, you can use a food processor fitted with the slicer attachment, but the cuts will not be as clean.) Transfer to a large heatproof bowl, add the bacon, and set aside.
• Measure 1/4 cup of the reserved bacon fat into a small pan and warm over low heat until liquified (if you don't have enough bacon fat, make up the difference with olive oil). Remove from the heat and whisk in the lemon juice, vinegar, shallot, garlic, honey, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Drizzle the dressing over the brussels sprouts and toss well. Taste and season with more salt as necessary.
• If you have time, let the salad sit out for 30 minutes or so before proceeding-in this time, the dressing helps the sprouts soften a bit.
• Just before serving, top with the toasted pistachios; if using the horseradish, use a microplane grater to shave a little over the top as well.

Steps:

• Make the dressing: Whisk the vegetable oil and olive oil in a small bowl. In a large bowl, whisk the honey, vinegar, lemon juice, lemon zest, mustard, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a pinch of pepper.
• Slowly whisk the oil mixture into the vinegar mixture until combined. Refrigerate at least 1 hour; store in an airtight container up to 1 week.
• Make the salad: Toss the Brussels sprout leaves, dried blueberries and cranberries, almonds and 1/4 cup dressing in a large bowl. Pile the salad onto a plate. Top with the manchego and season with pepper. Serve with bagel chips, if desired.

Steps:

• Place Brussels sprouts in a large saucepan; add 1 in. of water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, until tender, 8-10 minutes. Drain; rinse with cold water and pat dry. Combine with green onions., Meanwhile, whisk together next six ingredients. Toss 2 tablespoons of dressing with lettuce; transfer to a serving bowl. Pour remaining dressing over Brussels sprouts and onions; toss to coat. Mound on lettuce. Sprinkle with almonds.

Steps:

• Slice the stems off the Brussels sprouts and cut each one in half, then thinly slice. Transfer the shaved sprouts to a medium bowl and break apart with your hands.
• To prepare the vinaigrette, juice the lemons into a small bowl and remove the seeds.
• Add the mustard, oregano, pepper, and salt. Whisk to combine.
• Slowly add the olive oil while continuing to whisk until evenly blended.
• Slice the avocado and remove the pit, then dice.
• Trim the ends of the scallions, then dice.
• In a large bowl, combine the Brussels sprouts and spinach.
• Add the avocado, bacon, scallions, Parmesan cheese, cranberries, and almonds.
• Pour the dressing evenly over the salad.
• Toss thoroughly until well mixed.
• Enjoy!
