Categories     appetizer

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 ear corn, shucked
1/4 cup barbecue sauce
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
1/2 pound slab bacon about 1 inch thick, halved lengthwise
1 head iceberg lettuce, quartered into wedges
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
Kosher salt and coarsely ground black pepper
Blue Cheese Dressing (recipe follows)
2 tablespoons Ryan's Pickled Red Onions (recipe follows)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons buttermilk
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1/4 teaspoon sugar
Dash hot sauce
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup white vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons kosher salt

Steps:

  • For the corn: Preheat the broiler. Line a baking sheet with foil.
  • Rub the oil on the corn on the prepared baking sheet. Broil the corn, turning every few minutes, until charred on all sides, about 10 minutes. Remove the corn and let it cool slightly, then cut the kernels from the cob and set aside; discard the cob.
  • For the bacon: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
  • Mix the barbecue sauce, vinegar and sugar in a small bowl. Put the bacon on the prepared baking sheet and brush with a layer of the sauce. Bake, flipping and basting with more sauce every 10 minutes, until the bacon is cooked through and juicy and the sauce is sticky and dark, 45 to 55 minutes. Cut the bacon in half crosswise to yield 4 pieces.
  • To assemble the salad: Arrange the wedges of lettuce on a large platter. Add the tomatoes, corn and bacon around the wedges. Season the lettuce and tomatoes with salt. Top with coarsely ground pepper. Spoon the dressing over the lettuce wedges and top with the pickled onions. Serve immediately.
  • Mix the mayonnaise, buttermilk, vinegar, sugar and hot sauce in a medium bowl. Season with a pinch each of salt and pepper, then fold in the blue cheese, leaving a few lumps of cheese.
  • Place the onions and peppercorns in a jar. Whisk the vinegars together with the sugar, salt and 1 cup water in a medium bowl until the sugar is dissolved. Pour over the onions and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours. The pickled onions will keep about 2 weeks in the fridge.

CHOPPED ICEBERG WEDGE SALAD (THE MERMAID OYSTER BAR)



Chopped Iceberg Wedge Salad (The Mermaid Oyster Bar) image

This is Zach Braff's (of Scrubs) favorite salad from The Mermaid Oyster Bar in New York City. Recipe was in Food Network Magazine June 2010. I think some grilled shrimp would be DIVINE on top of this salad!!! I suggest letting the dressing rest for an hour or two to get maximum flavor.
