Radish Orange Goat Cheese Salad Recipe 485

Steps:

• Combine first 4 ingredients in a bowl, stirring well.
• Add radishes and oregano and toss to coat.
• Place 1 cup of baby spinach on each of 4 plates.
• Using a slotted spoon top each plate with 1/2 cup of radish mixture.
• Sprinkle salad with 2 tablespoons of goat cheese and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper.
• Drizzle remaining dressing evenly over salad.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Toss the radishes with 2 tablespoons of the oil on a baking sheet and season with salt and pepper. Roast until golden brown and just tender, 25 to 30 minutes, flipping them once halfway through the cooking time.
• Whisk the shallot, garlic, thyme leaves, Dijon mustard and vinegar together in a small bowl. While whisking, slowly drizzle in the 1/3 cup of oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Put the roasted radishes, cooked lentils, almonds and dressing in a large bowl and toss to combine. Allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator and up to overnight.
• Before serving, toss the lentil mixture with the baby arugula. Serve at room temperature topped with the lemon zest and crumbled goat cheese.

Steps:

• Mince shallot. Place in small bowl. Cover with 2 1/2 tablespoons of the vinegar add a pinch of salt and set aside. Trim the ends of the radishes. Thinly slice on a mandoline. Arrange slices on a platter. Season all over with salt. Cut off each end of each orange and squeeze over the radishes, then discard. Use a sharp knife to remove the skin from the orange. Cut in between membranes to remove each slice. Squeeze remaining membrane all over the radishes to extract any juice. Scatter oranges over the radishes. Scatter pumpkin seeds and goat cheese to taste over the radishes and oranges. Pour macerated shallots and vinegar over top. Drizzle olive oil to taste (one to two tablespoons) over top. Scatter chives over top and let sit a few minutes (or longer - it benefits from a brief rest) before serving. http://www.not-too-sweet.com/radish-orange-goat-cheese-salad/

Steps:

• Cut peel and white pith from oranges with a sharp small knife. Working over a sieve set over a bowl, cut orange sections free from membranes, letting sections drop into sieve.
• Cut goat cheese into fourths and pat each portion between your hands to form a disk. Pat pecans all over each disk to coat. Bake on a small baking sheet in middle of oven until heated through, about 5 minutes.
• Measure out 1 tablespoon orange juice from bowl and whisk together with mustard, vinegar, salt, and sugar in a large bowl. Add oil and whisk until blended.
• Add spinach, onion, and orange sections to dressing and toss well. Season with pepper. Divide among 4 salad plates and carefully transfer 1 goat-cheese disk to each salad.

Steps:

• Combine lemon juice, sugar and ¼ teaspoon salt in a jar. Twist on the lid and shake until the sugar and salt dissolve; chill dressing thoroughly.
• When ready to serve, simply arrange the orange rounds on a serving dish or individual plates, top with a pretty pile of radish matchsticks and drizzle with the dressing. Grate a bit of orange zest on top, if desired, and serve with the tiniest bit of flaky sea salt for finishing, if you like - but that exact amount is best left to individual diners.
