Categories     side-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic, grated, plus 1 unpeeled clove, smashed
1 small baguette, torn into medium pieces
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Juice of 2 lemons
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
4 white anchovies, minced
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 pounds lacinato kale, ends trimmed
1 pound red endive, halved lengthwise
1 pound escarole, halved lengthwise
1 cup sliced chives (about 1 1/2-inch pieces)
Freshly grated Parmesan, for serving

Steps:

  • Set up your grill for even medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, distribute the coals evenly. If using a gas grill, heat both sides evenly.
  • In a small saucepan set on the grill, melt the butter with the clove of smashed garlic. Remove the garlic.
  • Place the torn baguette in a mixing bowl and pour the melted garlic butter over the top. Toss to coat the bread and season with salt and pepper. Put the croutons in a cast-iron pan and place on the grill. Cover the grill and bake until golden brown and crisp, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • In the meantime, in a mason jar, add the lemon juice, olive oil, grated garlic, anchovies, Dijon and red pepper flakes. Season with salt and pepper and vigorously shake to combine.
  • Remove the croutons from the grill and set aside. Brush the kale leaves and the cut side of the endive and escarole with some of the lemon vinaigrette. Place on the grill, cut-side down, and char for about 2 minutes.
  • Remove from the grill, slice into bite-sized pieces and put in a large serving bowl. Add the croutons and chives and dress with the remainder of the vinaigrette. Add Parmesan and toss to combine. Serve.

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 bunches baby beets, scrubbed and trimmed
2 tablespoons champagne vinegar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
4 sprigs fresh thyme
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 shallot, chopped
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon champagne vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
One 5-ounce container baby arugula
One 8-ounce container burrata cheese
1/4 cup toasted pine nuts

Steps:

  • For the beets: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Put the beets in an 8-inch square baking dish. Add the vinegar, salt, thyme sprigs and 3 tablespoons water to the baking dish. Toss well to coat. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and roast until the beets are tender all the way through, about 50 minutes. Allow the beets to cool slightly, then use a paper towel to rub off the skins. Cut the beets into quarters or sixths depending on the size. Toss with any of the remaining liquid from roasting. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • For the dressing: Heat a small skillet over low heat. Add the oil, shallots and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and cook until the shallots are soft but not brown, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together the vinegar, Dijon mustard and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Add the cooled oil mixture and whisk to combine.
  • For the salad: Add the arugula and beets to the dressing and toss gently to coat. Place the salad on a large platter and tear the burrata around the sides. Sprinkle with the pine nuts.

Grilled Beet Salad with Burrata and Cherries image

Roasting whole beets on the grill (or on hot coals) until they're completely blackened imparts an intense smoky flavor, and the charred skins slip off easily. Tossed in oil and vinegar and topped with burrata, cherries, and olives, this recipe is an exciting new take on beet salad.

Yield 4-6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 medium beets (about 2 lb. total)
1 Tbsp. sherry vinegar or red wine vinegar
1 tsp. kosher salt
3 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
8 oz. burrata or mozzarella, torn into 2" pieces
8 oz. fresh cherries (about 2 cups), halved, pitted
1 cup Castelvetrano olives, smashed, pitted
Flaky sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Prepare a charcoal fire in a grill. Let coals cool to medium heat (coals should be covered with ash and glowing red with no black remaining).
  • Grill beets directly on coals, turning occasionally, until skins are blackened and flesh is fork-tender, 35-45 minutes. (Alternatively, grill, covered, on the grate of a gas or charcoal grill over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, 45-55 minutes.) Transfer to a large bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Let steam until cool enough to handle.
  • Wearing gloves if you don't want pink hands, pull charred skins off beets (they should slip off easily), then slice each beet into 6 wedges. Transfer to a large bowl, add vinegar, kosher salt, and 3 Tbsp. oil, and toss to combine.
  • Arrange beet mixture on a platter. Top with burrata, cherries, and olives. Drizzle with oil; season with sea salt and pepper.
  • Do Ahead: Beets can be grilled 2 days ahead. Let cool (do not peel); cover and chill.

Provided by Rick M.

Categories     Citrus

Time 1h

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 lbs mixed medium beets, such as red, gold and pink, washed and tops removed
2 oranges, halved
2 lemons, halved
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
flakey sea salt (for serving)
fresh ground black pepper
torn mint leaf (for serving)
chopped chives (for serving)
toasted black and white sesame seeds (for serving)
vegetable oil (for brushing)

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for medium high heat; thoroughly clean grates and brush with oil. Grill whole, unpeeled beets, covered, turning every 10 minutes, until tender and a skewer or cake tester can easily slide into the center, 40-50 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap and let steam for 30 minutes. Using a paper towel, rub beet to remove skin (it should slip off easily, wear gloves to avoid staining your hands). Trim root end and cut beets into wedges.
  • Meanwhile, grill oranges and lemons, turning once, until fruit is caramelized and peel is charred, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Toss beets with a squeeze of the grilled citrus, a drizzle of olive oil, some flaky sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Top with mint, chives and toasted sesame seeds.

Tips:

  • Choose the right beets: Select beets that are small to medium in size, about 2 to 3 inches in diameter. Smaller beets have a more tender texture and cook more evenly.
  • Prepare the beets properly: Before grilling, trim the tops and bottoms of the beets, leaving about 1 inch of stem intact. Scrub the beets thoroughly to remove any dirt or debris. If desired, peel the beets before grilling.
  • Use a hot grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat before grilling the beets. This will help to create a nice char on the outside of the beets while keeping the inside tender.
  • Grill the beets until tender: Depending on the size of your beets, they will take about 15-20 minutes to grill. Turn the beets occasionally to ensure that they cook evenly. The beets are done grilling when they are tender when pierced with a fork.
  • Let the beets cool: Once the beets are grilled, remove them from the grill and let them cool slightly before handling. Once cool enough to handle, peel the beets and cut them into wedges or slices.
  • Make the charred citrus dressing: While the beets are grilling, make the charred citrus dressing. To do this, simply combine olive oil, lemon juice, orange juice, grapefruit juice, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper in a small bowl and whisk to combine.
  • Assemble the salad: To assemble the salad, simply combine the grilled beets, charred citrus dressing, arugula, and goat cheese in a large bowl and toss to combine. Serve immediately.

Conclusion:

This grilled beet and charred citrus salad is a delicious and refreshing summer dish. The beets are grilled until tender and slightly charred, and the charred citrus dressing adds a bright and tangy flavor. The arugula and goat cheese add a bit of texture and richness to the salad. This salad is perfect for a light lunch or dinner, and it can also be served as a side dish.
