Orange, Parsley, and Walnut Salad image

In this recipe, the parsley and oranges in the salad pair well with fish (such as striped bass). The salad also goes great with chicken or pork. When buying parsley, look for small, tender leaves. Large leave tend to be tough and less delicious.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 medium organic oranges
1/2 cup walnuts
4 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
3 cups parsley
4 1 1/2-inch thick, skin-on fish fillets (such as striped bass)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Peel long strips of zest off one orange. Slice half very thinly into julienne. Cut peel and pith away from the orange, following contour of orange. Holding orange over a bowl, cut between membranes, allowing segments to fall into bowl. Squeeze juice into bowl; discard membrane. Repeat with remaining oranges.
  • Combine walnuts with 1 teaspoon oil, 4 large zest strips, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and a few grinds of pepper on a baking sheet. Roast until golden brown and fragrant, shaking once or twice, 8 to 10 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 425 degrees. Let walnuts cool, then coarsely chop with a few strips of zest.
  • Combine mustard, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 2 tablespoons orange juice. Whisk in 3 tablespoons oil. In a second bowl, combine parsley, walnuts, and julienned orange zest. Lift oranges out of juice and add to salad. Drizzle with some of the dressing and toss gently.
  • Season fish with salt and pepper. Heat a large oven-proof skillet over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil, swirling to coat pan. Place skin-side down in skillet and cook 3 minutes. Transfer to oven and cook until opaque, 8 to 10 minutes depending on thickness of fish. Serve fish with salad, drizzled with dressing.

ENDIVE SALAD WITH CANDIED WALNUTS, ORANGE CARAMEL DRESSING AND BLUE CHEESE



Endive Salad with Candied Walnuts, Orange Caramel Dressing and Blue Cheese image

You can use a lot of oranges for this recipe: Minneolas, tangerines, navels. You can also use tangerines if you prefer - whatever looks best at the supermarket. This is fun because you candy the nuts and clean the caramel off the pan by using it to make a tasty dressing. The sweetness is so good with the walnuts and bitter greens. Use endive, chicory, escarole, radicchio or whatever other bitter greens are good. Want to be dairy-free? Simply omit the blue cheese.

Time 35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 cup walnut halves
Kosher salt or flaky sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Nonstick cooking spray
1/3 cup sugar
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 large oranges, 1 juiced (about 1/4 cup) and 1 peeled and supremed
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 to 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 large yellow endives, leaves separated
1 small head radicchio, leaves separated
3/4 cup blue cheese crumbles
10 to 12 sprigs flat-leaf parsley, stemmed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Arrange the walnuts on a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet and place in the center of the oven. Toast until the nuts are golden brown, really toasted, 5 to 8 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and set aside.
  • Spray a parchment paper-lined baking sheet with nonstick spray. In a large saute pan, heat the sugar over medium heat until it melts and turns a light amber color, 5 to 8 minutes. Sprinkle the walnuts in a single layer over the caramel. Spray a rubber spatula with nonstick spray and stir the nuts, quickly but carefully, to coat with the caramel. Transfer the nuts from the pan onto the prepared baking sheet, sprinkling the nuts so they separate as they land on the parchment. Season with salt.
  • To the pan with the residual caramel, add the vinegar and orange juice. Warm the pan, whisking until the caramel, vinegar and orange juice are well combined. Remove from the heat. Whisk in the mustard and oil. Adjust the seasoning.
  • Arrange the endive and radicchio leaves in a single layer on a family-style large platter. Intersperse the orange segments and walnuts with the endive and radicchio. Season with salt to taste. Drizzle with all of the dressing. Top with the blue cheese and parsley. Serve immediately.

Paula Deen made this on Food Network and it looked so delicious I had to try it right away! This recipe is large enough for a big dinner party, but don't be afraid to rescale for a smaller group.
