Provided by Emeril Lagasse

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Freshly ground black pepper
6 cups mesclun greens
1 pint yellow tear-drop tomatoes, halved
1 pint red tear-drop tomatoes, halved
3 large tomatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 Maui onion, cut into 3/4-inch pieces
Maui Onion Dressing, recipe follows
Salt
1 large Maui onion
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus 1/4 to 1/2 cup
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a bowl, combine the tomatoes and Maui onion. Season with salt and pepper and toss to combine. Add the Maui Onion Dressing and toss to combine. Place the greens on a large platter and season with salt. Top with the tomato salad and serve.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place the onion on a large piece of aluminum foil. Drizzle the onion with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Wrap the onion tightly in the foil and roast until tender and lightly golden brown, about 50 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Remove from the oven and cool. When cool, roughly chop the onion and place in the bowl of a food processor. Process until smooth. With the machine running, slowly add the remaining 1/4 to 1/2 cup olive oil through the feed tube, until the dressing is smooth. Season with salt and pepper.

I'm not usually a fan of tomatoes, but this salad changed my mind. The tomatoes were so juicy and sweet, and the Maui onions added a nice sharpness. I loved the dressing too - it was light and tangy.
