HERBY RICE SALAD WITH PEAS AND PROSCIUTTO



Herby Rice Salad With Peas and Prosciutto image

This bright, lemony salad laced with fresh herbs is a passport to spring. Simmering the rice in plenty of salted water just until it's al dente and then cooling it well is key. Blanched fresh peas are terrific if you can find them, but frozen work just fine. The trick is marinating them in lemony olive oil, a technique borrowed from the Michigan chef Abra Berens, who uses it in her comprehensive book "Ruffage: A Practical Guide to Vegetables" (Chronicle Books, 2019). The prosciutto adds a nice salty hit, but you could sub in a dollop of creamy ricotta or leave both out for your vegan friends. Either way, the recipe delivers a bright salad that can stand in for a light meal.

Time 30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Flaky sea salt
2 cups long-grain white rice
3 cups shelled peas, briefly blanched (if fresh) or raw (if frozen)
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
A few thick slices of red onion (these will be removed, so you want them big enough to locate for removal; they are like the booster rockets you leave behind on your way into rice-salad outer space)
2 lemons, zested and juiced, plus additional lemon wedges
1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1/2 cup slivered basil, plus more to taste
1/2 cup slivered mint, plus more to taste
1/4 cup chopped parsley, plus more to taste
2 or 3 tablespoons sliced chives (or 1 to 2 tablespoons of finely chopped red onion), plus more to taste
12 to 16 slices of prosciutto (optional)
Fresh ricotta (preferably a local or all-natural brand), for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Prepare the rice: Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil and salt it. Stir in the rice. When the water returns to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover and cook the rice at a gentle simmer for about 15 minutes, or until tender but still a bit firm and not at all mushy. Drain the rice in a colander set in the sink, then transfer it to a large bowl. You can refrigerate it after this step or use it once it has cooled completely.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the peas, olive oil, sliced onion, lemon zest and juice, red-pepper flakes and ½ teaspoon salt. Allow to marinate, refrigerated, for 20 minutes or up to 3 days.
  • Remove the sliced onion from the pea mixture and discard. Add 5 cups of the cooled or refrigerated rice to the pea mixture, along with the basil, mint, parsley and chives; toss gently to combine. Taste for salt and lemon juice. This is important - get it the way you want it. If the ratio needs a bit more rice, add it from whatever is left. (You should have another cup or so.) You may also wish to add more herbs.
  • Serve in shallow bowls, draping a couple of slices of prosciutto alongside for each person. Alternatively, a spoonful of really good ricotta on top is also delicious. Or, serve with both prosciutto and ricotta - although vegetarians and vegans will enjoy this dish without the meat or dairy. Set out lemon wedges to squeeze to taste.

CHICKEN AND SNAP PEA WILD RICE SALAD



Chicken and Snap Pea Wild Rice Salad image

I learned how to harvest wild rice last fall and enjoy recipes to use the nutritious grass. This is a filling, flavorful dish.

Provided by Stacey

Categories     Salad     Grains     Rice Salad Recipes

Time 5h15m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 ½ cups uncooked wild rice
6 cups water
⅓ cup tarragon vinegar
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried tarragon, crumbled
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
⅔ cup safflower oil
3 cups cubed cooked chicken
1 cup sliced celery
½ cup chopped fresh parsley
½ cup sliced green onion
½ pound sugar snap peas, strings removed
½ cup toasted slivered almonds

Steps:

  • Bring the wild rice and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender but not mushy, 20 to 45 minutes depending on the variety of wild rice. Drain off any excess liquid, fluff the rice with a fork, and cook uncovered 5 minutes more. Scrape into a mixing bowl, and refrigerate until cold.
  • Whisk the vinegar, mustard, sugar, salt, garlic, dried tarragon, black pepper, and red pepper flakes in a small mixing bowl until smooth. Pour the safflower oil into the dressing in a thin, steady stream while whisking vigorously until the oil has been fully incorporated into the dressing; set aside. Stir the chicken, celery, parsley, and green onion into the cooled wild rice. Stir in the dressing until evenly blended. Cover the rice mixture, and refrigerate 4 hours to overnight.
  • Bring a small saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the sugar snap peas, and cook uncovered until just tender, about 30 seconds. Drain in a colander, then immediately immerse in ice water for several minutes until cold to stop the cooking process. Once the peas are cold, drain and cut into 1-inch diagonal pieces. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Stir the peas and toasted almonds into the rice mixture just before serving.
