Rice Salad With Roasted Summer Vegetables Recipes

Steps:

• Bring water and rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, 18 to 20 minutes. Remove from heat and pour enough cold water on top of the cooked rice to cover it. Stir to cool. Drain well; transfer rice into a bowl. Stir in 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with herb salt.
• Mix capers, parsley, and lemon zest in a small bowl; add to rice. Mix in zucchini, carrots, yellow bell pepper, and red bell pepper. Season with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, lemon juice, and salt.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400˚F (200˚C).
• On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, add carrots, potatoes, yellow squash, and zucchini.
• Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, oregano, and garlic, and mix to evenly coat the coat the vegetables. *Note: You may need to quarter the potatoes if they are too thick so they roast faster.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the vegetables are golden brown.
• Make the chimichurri dressing: combine the cilantro, parsley, garlic, salt, pepper, olive oil, lime juice, and red wine vinegar in a food processor and blend until smooth.
• Add a large handful of greens to a large bowl. Top with the roasted vegetables and sliced radishes.
• Pour over the chimichurri dressing and toss until evenly distributed.

Steps:

• In large saucepan, stir wild rice into broth and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat to low, cover and cook 15 minutes.
• Add brown rice, stir quickly and recover.
• Increase heat for one minute, then reduce heat to simmer and cook, without opening, 45 minutes.
• Remove from heat and let stand, without opening, 10 minutes.
• Wash and trim vegetables.
• Leave peel on eggplant.
• Pour oil into very large bowl.
• Cut vegetables into 3/4-inch dice, leaving cherry tomatoes whole, and toss with oil in bowl.
• Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with nonstick liner.
• (You can substitute oiled foil as a liner, but you will lose a lot of flavor.) Turn vegetables into pan.
• Turn oven on to 400 degrees.
• Roast vegetables in oven while heating for 15 minutes.
• Stir into single layer and return to oven for about 30 minutes more or until fairly dry and lightly browned.
• Cool in pan on rack until vegetables stop steaming.
• Scrape vegetables and all the browned juices into the large bowl.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Trim the ends of the zucchinis and cut them diagonally in 3/4-inch-thick slices. (The slices will seem large, but they¿ll shrink while they cook.) Cut the peppers lengthwise in 1 1/2-inch-wide slices, discarding the core. Trim off the fennel stalks and cut the bulb through the core in 1-inch wedges. (Cutting through the core keeps the pieces intact.) Peel the onion and slice it in 1/4-inch-thick rounds, leaving the slices intact.
• Place the vegetables in groups on a sheet pan. Drizzle with the olive oil, add the garlic, and toss gently to be sure the vegetables are lightly coated with oil. Spread the vegetables in one layer on 2 sheet pans. (If they¿re crowded, they¿ll steam rather than roast.) Sprinkle with the salt and pepper and place the thyme sprigs on top. Roast for 15 minutes. Turn each piece and put the pans back in the oven for 5 to 10 minutes, until all the vegetables are crisp-tender. Sprinkle with extra salt and serve hot or at room temperature.
