FRESH MULTI-BEAN SALAD WITH CHARRED RED ONION



Fresh Multi-Bean Salad with Charred Red Onion image

Provided by David Tanis

Categories     salads and dressings, appetizer

Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 garlic cloves, grated
Salt and pepper
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 pound fresh shelling beans (fava beans, butterbeans or cranberry beans)
1/2 pound small green beans
1/2 pound romano beans
1/2 pound small yellow wax beans
1 medium red onion, in 1/4-inch slices
A few sprigs fresh marjoram or 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • To make the vinaigrette, stir together vinegar, mustard and garlic in small bowl. Add a good pinch of salt and pepper, then whisk in olive oil. Taste for seasoning, then set aside.
  • Shuck and cook the fresh shelling beans. If using fava beans, blanch in boiling water for 1 minute, then rinse in cool water. Peel the outer skin from each bean and set aside. If using butterbeans or cranberry beans, simmer in lightly salted water to cover. They should be tender in about 30 minutes. Let shelling beans cool in their cooking water. (May be cooked ahead.)
  • Cook the green beans, romano beans and wax beans separately. Simmer each type in lightly salted water for 3 to 5 minutes, until just tender. Spread them out on plates to cool to room temperature.
  • Heat a dry cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Lay onion slices in the skillet and let them char and soften slightly on one side, about 5 minutes. Turn and char the other side. Set aside to cool. Toast marjoram on the hot skillet until it chars slightly, about one minute, then remove. (You may char the onions and marjoram on an outdoor grill or under the broiler.)
  • To assemble the salad, drain the shell beans (reserve liquid for another purpose) and put them in a large serving bowl. Add cooked green beans and charred onions. Season with salt and pepper. Add vinaigrette and toss well. Crumble marjoram and sprinkle over salad. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.

SHEET-PAN CHICKEN WITH RHUBARB AND RED ONION



Sheet-Pan Chicken With Rhubarb and Red Onion image

This easy yet robust dish celebrates rhubarb's savory side. Here, a bit of honey, some sliced sweet red onion and the rich juices of roasted chicken thighs and drumsticks temper its tartness. Serve this dish with a crackly baguette or some rice to catch the tangy sauce at the bottom of the pan. It's the best part.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     weekday, poultry, main course

Time 45m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 3/4 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs and drumsticks (see Tip)
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal), plus more as needed
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more as needed
1 large red onion, cut into 1/2-inch-thick wedges
5 thyme sprigs
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more as needed
8 ounces rhubarb stalks, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces (about 2 cups)
3 tablespoons honey, plus more to taste
1/2 cup cilantro or mint leaves and tender stems, torn

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees and line sheet pan with parchment paper. Pat chicken dry with paper towels and season all over with coriander, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
  • Place onion wedges on the prepared sheet pan and lightly season with more salt and pepper. Add chicken and thyme sprigs to the pan and drizzle 3 tablespoons oil over everything. Toss until well coated, then spread chicken and onions in a single layer. Roast for 10 minutes.
  • While the chicken is in the oven, combine rhubarb and 3 tablespoons honey in a medium bowl. Lightly drizzle with oil, add a pinch of salt and pepper, and toss until rhubarb is well coated.
  • Remove chicken from oven and carefully spoon rhubarb onto the hot pan around the onions and chicken. Continue roasting until the chicken is cooked through, and the rhubarb and onion are tender and caramelized, 25 to 35 minutes longer, tossing the rhubarb and onions (not the chicken) once about halfway through.
  • Stir the rhubarb and onions very well, making sure to incorporate all the browned bits and chicken juices from the bottom of the pan (this is the tastiest part). Then sample a piece of rhubarb. If it's very tart, drizzle with a little more honey, tossing well. Serve chicken with rhubarb-onion mixture garnished with herbs.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use ripe, juicy tangerines.
  • If you don't have red onion, you can substitute a yellow or white onion.
  • To make the salad ahead of time, combine all of the ingredients except the arugula and dressing in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Just before serving, toss in the arugula and dressing.
  • This salad is also delicious with grilled or roasted chicken, fish, or tofu.

Conclusion:

This tangerine and red onion salad is a refreshing and flavorful side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. So next time you are looking for a light and healthy salad, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
