Time 1h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 red beets
2 golden beets
2 cups mache (lamb's lettuce)
½ cup crumbled goat cheese
1 avocado - peeled, pitted, and cut into thin strips or wedges
½ fennel bulb, trimmed and thinly shaved
2 tablespoons basil vinaigrette
Pepitas for garnish
Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Slice off the beet leaves close to the tip of the beet. Discard the beet greens. Scrub the beets thoroughly, and then loosely wrap each one in foil.
  • Transfer the wrapped beets to baking sheet lined with Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil. Roast for 50-60 minutes. Check the beets every 20 minutes or so. If they are starting to look dry or are scorching on the bottoms, dribble a tablespoon of water over the beets before rewrapping. Beets are done when a fork or skewer slides easily to the middle of the beet.
  • Cool the beets until they can comfortably be handled. Hold one of the beets in a paper towel and use the edges to rub the skin away. The skin should peel away easily; if it doesn't, the beets likely need to cook for a little longer. Slice the peeled beets into wedges.
  • Combine the beet wedges, mache, goat cheese, avocado, and shaved fennel on a large serving platter and drizzle with basil vinaigrette. Sprinkle the pepitas on top and serve immediately.

ROASTED BEET AND GOAT CHEESE SALAD



Roasted Beet and Goat Cheese Salad image

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 pounds beets, peeled and cut into wedges
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Vegetable oil, for frying
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, beaten
1 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
Three 4-ounce goat cheese logs, cut into 12 slices
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Pinch sugar
12 cups mixed greens

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Spread the beets on a baking sheet. In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, rosemary and some salt and pepper. Reserve one-quarter of the dressing for the salad and pour the rest over the beets. Roast until the beets are tender, 45 to 50 minutes.
  • While the beets are cooking, heat 1/4 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  • Put the flour, eggs and breadcrumbs in separate shallow bowls. Coat the goat cheese slices first in the flour, then in the egg, then in the breadcrumbs. Fry the slices until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Whisk the mustard and sugar into the reserved dressing, then pour over the greens in a large bowl and toss to coat. Divide the greens among 6 plates, add the beets on top and place 2 fried goat cheese slices on top.

Tips:

  • Choose the right beets: Look for beets that are firm and smooth, without any blemishes or bruises. Smaller beets tend to be sweeter and more tender than larger ones.
  • Roast the beets properly: Roasting brings out the natural sweetness of beets. To roast beets, preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Trim the tops and roots of the beets, then toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Wrap each beet in foil and place them on a baking sheet. Roast the beets for 45-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
  • Make the dressing ahead of time: The dressing for this salad can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. This makes it a great option for busy weeknights.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as dill, parsley, and chives, add a pop of flavor to this salad. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but they will not be as flavorful.

Conclusion:

This roasted beet, goat cheese, and fennel salad is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for any occasion. The roasted beets are sweet and tender, the goat cheese is creamy and tangy, and the fennel adds a subtle anise flavor. The dressing is light and flavorful, and the salad is topped with crunchy walnuts and fresh herbs. This salad is sure to please everyone at your table.
