Time 3h30m

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon orange oil
16 plum tomatoes, cored and halved lengthwise
6 medium zucchini, trimmed, halved lengthwise and cut across into 1-inch pieces
4 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
2 teaspoons kosher salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
4 teaspoons chopped fresh basil
1/2 cup crumbled goat cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 275 degrees. Combine 2 teaspoons olive oil and the orange oil in a small bowl. Brush the tomatoes with the oil mixture lightly on all sides and place, cut side down on 2 baking sheets. Bake until reduced to one-third of their original size, about 3 hours; tomatoes should still be plump.
  • Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a large, nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the zucchini and saute until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Place in a large bowl and toss in the tomatoes. In another bowl, whisk together the vinegar, remaining olive oil, salt, pepper, thyme and basil. Add to the vegetables and toss.
  • Preheat the broiler. Place the mixture in a shallow gratin dish or pie plate. Sprinkle with the goat cheese and broil until melted. Divide among 4 plates and serve.

I found the dressing to be a bit too oily. I would recommend using less olive oil.

This salad would be even better if it was made with grilled zucchini instead of oven-dried.

This salad is a burst of flavors! The oven-dried tomatoes and zucchini add a unique sweetness and smokiness, while the pine nuts and Parmesan cheese add a touch of nutty and salty richness. The dressing is the perfect balance of tangy and savory. Ove
