GRILLED ASPARAGUS AND TOMATO SALAD WITH FETA



Grilled Asparagus and Tomato Salad With Feta image

This complete side is made directly on the grill. Prep everything and let the cook/griller do the rest. Pretty and a wowzer. It will become the centerpiece of your meal. Recipe by Jamie Purviance. (Don't feel like making the vinaigrette, use a good-quality bottled brand.)

Provided by gailanng

Categories     Vegetable

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons champagne vinegar (can sub rice vinegar or white wine vinegar)
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 lbs asparagus
1 pint cherry tomatoes
3 slices country-style white bread, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives or 2 tablespoons green onions

Steps:

  • Prepare the grill for direct cooking over medium heat (350° to 450°F) and preheat the grill pan.
  • In a small bowl whisk together the mustard, vinegar, salt and pepper. Slowly add in the oil, whisking constantly until it is emulsified.
  • Remove and discard the tough bottom of each asparagus spear by grasping at each end and bending it gently until it snaps at its natural point of tenderness, usually about two-thirds of the way down the spear.
  • Spread the asparagus on a large plate. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the vinaigrette and turn the spears until they are evenly coated. (I lightly salt the asparagus at this point.) In a medium bowl toss the tomatoes and bread cubes with 2 tablespoons of the vinaigrette.
  • Brush the cooking grates clean. Spread the tomatoes and bread cubes in a single layer on the grill pan and lay the asparagus on the cooking grate. Grill over direct medium heat, with the lid closed as much as possible, until the asparagus is tender, the tomatoes begin to soften, and the bread cubes are toasted, turning often. The asparagus will take 6 to 8 minutes and the tomatoes and bread cubes will take 2 to 4 minutes.
  • Arrange the asparagus on a platter and top with the tomatoes, croutons, feta, and chives. Serve with the remaining vinaigrette.

TOMATO, CUCUMBER AND FETA SALAD



Tomato, Cucumber and Feta Salad image

A typically Greek salad, this has caramelized garlic to spark it up a bit! From Cat Cora's Kitchen cookbook.

Provided by Sharon123

Categories     Salad Dressings

Time 20m

Yield 4-6

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 large garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, plus 1 cup olive oil
3 large ripe tomatoes, cored, cut into 1/4-inch slices
1 large cucumber, peeled, cut into 1/8-inch slices
1 small red onion, cut into thin slices
12 kalamata olives
1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
1/2 cup red wine vinegar (sometimes I add a splash of balsamic too)
1 tablespoon fresh oregano, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
kosher salt and black pepper

Steps:

  • In a small frying pan, saute the garlic in the 1 tbls. olive oil over medium high heat. Stir often, until the garlic is caramelized and slightly crunchy. Watch carefully! Set aside and allow to cool to room temperature.
  • Arrange the sliced vegetables on individual plates, or on a platter. Top with the olives and the crumbled feta cheese.
  • Whisk the vinegar, 1 cup olive oil and oregano together. Season each salad with salt and pepper, then drizzle with the dressing. Top with the sauteed garlic and serve. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your tomatoes will make a big difference in the taste of your salad, so choose the best you can find. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and have a slight give when you gently squeeze them.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs add a lot of flavor to this salad. If you can, use basil, oregano, and thyme from your garden or a farmers market.
  • Don't overdress the salad: A little bit of dressing goes a long way in this salad. Too much dressing will weigh it down and make it less refreshing.
  • Serve the salad immediately: This salad is best when served immediately after it is made. The tomatoes will start to wilt if you let it sit for too long.

Conclusion:

This tomato and feta salad is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for a summer meal. It is light, refreshing, and packed with flavor. The tomatoes, feta cheese, and herbs all come together to create a salad that is both satisfying and healthy. If you are looking for a quick and easy salad recipe that is sure to please everyone at your table, this tomato and feta salad is the perfect choice.
