Watermelon And Feta Salad With Serrano Chile Vinaigrette Recipes

Steps:

• In a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine olive oil, lime juice, vinegar, thyme, shallot, and serrano chile. Shake well.
• Season with salt to taste; chill in refrigerator.
• Remove rind from watermelon and slice flesh into 3" squares.
• To assemble salad, layer one piece of watermelon on one piece of feta. Repeat.
• Drizzle with vinaigrette and garnish with arugula and sliced serrano chile.

Steps:

• Add the garlic, Fresno, olive oil and vinegar to a glass jar with a lid. Season with salt and pepper, then add the mint. Place the lid on and shake vigorously to combine. Set aside.
• When ready to serve, combine the watermelon, cucumber and scallions in a large bowl. Dress with the vinaigrette and gently toss to combine. Sprinkle the crumbled feta on top. Serve chilled.

Steps:

• Make vinaigrette:
• Whisk together all vinaigrette ingredients and chill in an airtight container at least 8 hours to allow flavors to develop. Shake or whisk before using.
• Prepare watermelon and pickled rind:
• Remove and discard outer green skin from watermelon with a sharp knife. Using a vegetable peeler, shave enough 2-inch-long pieces from white rind to measure 1/2 cup. Transfer to a heatproof bowl. Reserve remaining watermelon.
• Stir together rice vinegar and sugar in a 1-quart heavy saucepan and bring to a boil. Carefully pour boiling-hot vinegar mixture over white rind shavings and let stand at least 1 hour.
• Trim and discard remaining white rind from watermelon, then cut watermelon into 18 pieces (about 3-inch squares).
• Make salad:
• Toss arugula with just enough vinaigrette to coat and salt to taste.
• Divide arugula among 6 plates, then place 1 watermelon piece in center of each plate. Top each with a scant 1/4 cup feta, then top with another watermelon piece and more feta. Top each with a final watermelon piece for a stack of 3 on each plate.
• Remove pickled rind from vinegar with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Top watermelon stacks with pickled rind and chile slices, then drizzle remaining vinaigrette around salads.

Steps:

• Method
• Place the watermelon in a large mixing bowl. Add the minced serrano chili pepper and lime juice to the bowl and toss gently until combined. Sprinkle with the feta and cilantro leaves and toss once more to incorporate. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Steps:

• Whisk together the orange juice, lemon juice, shallots, honey, salt, and pepper. Slowly pour in the olive oil, whisking constantly, to form an emulsion. If not using within an hour, store the vinaigrette covered in the refrigerator.
• Place the arugula, watermelon, feta, and mint in a large bowl. Drizzle with enough vinaigrette to coat the greens lightly and toss well. Taste for seasonings and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Chop 180g watermelon and ½ cucumber into chunks and tip into a bowl with the leaves from ½ bunch mint (reserving a few for garnish) and drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil. Season and pile on to a serving plate. Crumble over 100g feta, the remaining mint leaves, then drizzle with 1 tbsp balsamic glaze just before serving.

Steps:

• Whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Add the tomatoes, arugula, and onions; toss to coat. Gently stir in the watermelon and feta cheese to serve.
