Painteddesertroastedpeppersalad Recipes

Steps:

• Add the tomatoes, iceberg, romaine, chickpeas, salami and mozzarella to a large salad bowl.
• Add the olive oil, Parmesan, vinegar, mustard, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to a measuring cup or mason jar. Whisk to combine.
• Add the dressing to the salad and toss to combine. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat broiler, with rack in top position. Place bell peppers on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Broil, turning occasionally, until charred on all sides and tender, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl, cover tightly with plastic wrap, and let steam 20 minutes. Rub with paper towels to remove skin. Stem, seed, and cut each pepper lengthwise into 4 pieces.
• Arrange peppers on a serving platter, drizzle with oil, and top with capers, olives, vinegar, and lemon zest. Season with salt and pepper and sprinkle with basil.

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over high heat and add the oil, peppers and salt. Cook, stirring and tossing often, until the peppers begin to brown and soften, about 10 minutes. Pour the peppers into a large bowl and toss with the parsley, olives and capers. Serve as a side dish.

Steps:

• Char peppers over open flame or in broiler until blackened on all sides. Transfer to large bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and cool. Peel and seed peppers. Cut into 1/2-inch-wide strips.
• Place peppers in medium bowl. Add all remaining ingredients and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate overnight. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Keep refrigerated.) Return to room temperature before serving.

Steps:

• Combine bell peppers, feta cheese, and onion in a large bowl.
• Combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, mustard, honey, garlic, salt, pepper, and sugar in a small lidded jar and shake vigorously to combine. Pour over salad and toss to combine.

Steps:

• Beat oil and vinegar with wire whisk or fork. Beat in basil, oregano and pepper.
• Wash, seed and cut pepper into julienne strips.
• Wash, trim off stem ends and slice mushrooms.
• Wash and slice scallions thinly.
• Add vegetables to dressing; stir well.

Steps:

• Bring salted water to a boil.
• Removed seeds and ribs from the pepper.
• Cut peppers into stips about 1/2 inch thick.
• Place peppers in boiling water and blanch for 4 minutes.
• Drain peppers from water and place into an ice water bath to chill quickly and stop the cooking process.
• Prepare dressing:.
• In a processor blend mustard, seasonings and sugar.
• Start blending on slow speed.
• Stream in oil about 1/4 cup at a time alternating with the vinegar until all is used.
• Adjust seasonings if more salt or pper is needed to suit your taste.
• Set aside.
• Layer peppers on a platter alternating the colors.
• Pour dressing over peppers.
• Top with fresh herbs.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Wash peppers and lay them in a baking dish. Pour the olive oil over the peppers and bake for about 35 minutes, until wilted and beginning to turn brown. Remove peppers from oven and cover with foil or a towel. Allow to cool for at least 30 minutes. Carefully remove as much peel as you can from the peppers; discard. Some peel may be stubborn and remain - that's ok. Remove the centers and seeds also.
• Cut peppers into 1-inch pieces and add to a large bowl. Add parsley, feta, lemon zest, and the oil that the peppers cooked in. Toss and serve.
• Keeps refrigerated for about two days. I think the salad tastes best served closer to room temperature.

Steps:

• Place the peppers directly on the burner of a gas stove over high heat or on a grill. Just as each section turns puffy and black, turn the peppers with tongs to prevent overcooking. (If you don't have a gas stove, place the peppers on a baking pan, and broil in the oven, turning as each side becomes charred.) Spread peppers on a baking sheet and let cool.
• When peppers are cool enough to handle, halve peppers crosswise and remove stems, ribs, and seeds; scrape away charred skin. Slice peppers into 1-inch-thick strips and transfer to a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper; toss to combine.
• Using the flat side of a large knife, crush garlic. Sprinkle garlic with salt and continue crushing with the flat side of the knife until a paste is formed. Add to bowl with peppers, along with capers and vinegar. Drizzle with olive oil and toss until well combined. Let salad stand at room temperature until ready to serve.
• To serve salad, season with salt and pepper and drizzle with more oil, if desired. Garnish with olives and basil.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the baby spinach, red bell pepper, and Parmesan cheese.
• In a small bowl, mix the olive oil and rice vinegar. Toss with the baby spinach mixture, and serve.

Steps:

• DRESSING: In a blender, purée the oils with the garlic and onion.
• Strain into a large jar with a lid.
• Add the remaining dressing ingredients to the jar.
• Cover and shake well, then refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• ROASTED PEPPERS SALAD: Slice the roasted chiles and roasted bell peppers into ribbons, 1/2 inch thick.
• Arrange them decoratively on a serving platter, then pour the dressing over the chiles and peppers.
• Sprinkle the cheese over the pepper mixture and garnish around the edges with the lettuce.
• NOTE: I did not have mexican oregano, so I used epazote, and liked the results very much.
• Other possible substitutions could be savory, regular oregano, thyme, rosemary, or summer savory.
• I used about 2-3 tablespoons of shredded Monterey Jack cheese per serving, and I felt that was the perfect amount.
• Although the recipe did not state it, I topped it with a little bit of crushed guacamole-flavored tortilla chips.
• You could do the same with regular tortilla chips too, if desired.
