Time 1h20m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 tablespoons dried bread crumbs
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 egg, beaten
2 ounces garlic and herb goat cheese
½ tablespoon chopped shelled pistachios
1 beet, peeled
1 sweet potato, peeled
2 mini sweet peppers
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
4 ounces fresh spinach
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 small shallot, minced
2 tablespoons shelled pistachios
2 tablespoons flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon honey
½ teaspoon Dijon mustard
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Place bread crumbs and flour onto 2 separate plates. Place beaten egg in a small bowl. Divide goat cheese in 1/2 and roll into two balls. Flatten the balls to 1/2-inch thickness.
  • Coat both cheese medallions with flour; dip into beaten egg. Coat evenly with bread crumbs. Spoon chopped pistachios on top of each, gently pressing into cheese. Place in a baking dish, cover, and refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Cut beet and sweet potato into spirals using a spiralizer. Remove stem, seeds, and ribs from peppers; cut into rings. Spread out vegetables on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Remove cheese medallions from the refrigerator and make space for them on the baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until vegetables have softened and cheese medallions have slightly browned, about 10 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet.
  • While cheese and vegetables are cooling, combine 1/4 cup olive oil, shallot, shelled pistachios, flat-leaf parsley, vinegar, honey, and Dijon mustard in a food processor. Puree on high until the mixture is completely liquefied, 1 to 2 minutes. Season vinaigrette with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Divide spinach between 2 plates. Top with beet and sweet potato spirals, sweet pepper rings, and a cheese medallion. Drizzle vinaigrette on top and serve immediately.

Yield Makes 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 pounds medium sweet potatoes (about 7)
1/2 pound sliced bacon, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch-wide strips
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 scallions, thinly sliced, reserving sliced greens separately
2 tablespoons Sherry vinegar
1 tablespoon water

Steps:

  • Put oven rack in upper third of oven and preheat oven to 450°F.
  • Peel sweet potatoes, then cut each lengthwise into 6 spears. Cut spears in half crosswise if desired, then arrange in 1 layer in a large (17- by 12-inch) shallow baking pan.
  • Cook bacon in a 10-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat, stirring, until browned and crisp, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain, then pour bacon fat through a fine-mesh sieve onto potato spears and toss with 2 spatulas to coat. Sprinkle spears with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and roast (uncovered), turning every 15 to 20 minutes, until potatoes are tender and edges are browned, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Transfer to a serving dish.
  • Return bacon to cleaned skillet, then add oil and heat over moderate heat until hot but not smoking. Stir in white part of scallions and remove from heat. Stir in vinegar, water, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper and pour over potato spears. Sprinkle potatoes with scallion greens and serve warm.

Tips:

  • For a creamy vinaigrette, use avocado oil or Greek yogurt instead of vinegar.
  • Add a touch of honey or maple syrup for a sweeter flavor.
  • Use fresh herbs like cilantro, basil, or mint for a pop of freshness.
  • Add some nuts or seeds for a crunchy texture.
  • Use a variety of vinegars, such as balsamic, apple cider, or white wine vinegar, to create different flavor profiles.
  • Store the vinaigrette in a jar or container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
