Grilled Vegetable And Goat Cheese Roulade Recipes

GOAT CHEESE AND HERB STUFFED CHICKEN ROULADE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the spinach, goat cheese, almonds, breadcrumbs and garlic. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
• In another bowl, combine the butter, parsley, rosemary, thyme and lemon zest. Set aside.
• Lay the chicken breast-side down. Slice through the skin along the backbone of the chicken, cutting through the skin. Using your boning knife and fingers, release the skin from the chicken, angling the knife towards the meat of the chicken. Once you have loosened the skin from the back side, turn the chicken over so it is breast-side up and slice down the center of the breast. Using your boning knife and fingers, pull back the skin from each side. Once you get to the legs and wings, cut around each piece to release the skin from the joint. Take your time, this takes practice, and it doesn't have to be perfect, we just want as much skin as possible. Once you have removed the skin from each side of the chicken, set them aside.
• Remove each breast from the chickens by taking your boning knife and following the breast bone down each side. Use the bones as your natural guide, follow it all the way down to remove the breast.
• Once the breasts are removed, butterfly each breast by cutting into the thickest part of the breast horizontally, creating a pocket, like opening up a book. Once butterflied, place each breast in between 2 layers of plastic wrap and, using a meat mallet, pound until it is 1/4-inch thick.
• Lay the chicken breasts flat and sprinkle them with salt and pepper. Divide the herbed goat cheese stuffing between the 4 breasts, placing the stuffing mixture towards the bottom third of the breast, closest to its narrowest point. Roll the breast around the stuffing, tucking in the ends as you roll, like you would a burrito.
• Lay the chicken skins out and divide the herb butter between them, placing the butter just below the center point of the skin. Place the rolled breast directly on top of the butter and then wrap the skin around the chicken, tucking in the ends, repeating the same process you did to roll the breasts. Once rolled, secure the skin with 3 toothpicks, one in the middle and one on each end.
• Heat the oil in a nonstick, oven-safe saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the roulades and sear on all sides until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer the pan to the oven and bake until the internal temperature is 165 degrees F and the juices run clear, about 10 minutes.
• Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving. Remove the toothpicks, slice and serve.

• Add the sandwiches to the hot skillet and cook until golden brown and crisp and the cheese is melted, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Cut the sandwich in 1/2 before serving.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the shallot and garlic on a square of aluminum foil. Drizzle lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Fold up and seal the foil. Place in the oven and roast for 1 hour. Remove and let cool.

GRILLED VEGETABLES WITH GOAT CHEESE AND BALSAMIC GLAZE

Steps:

• 1. Wash and cut all vegetables and cut. Place in a large bowl, plastic Ziploc bag or vessel of choice.
• 2. Add 1/2 the olive oil, salt, and pepper and mix well. (I have also marinated the veggies in Italian dressing and other combinations). Place in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
• 3. If grilling outside, preheat your grill to medium-low and brush grate with olive oil. Indoor grill, the same. Place vegetables on grill for 2-4 minutes each side, turn. If roasting in the oven, preheat oven to 350 degrees (I have a hot oven so I usually have it at 325). Lightly coat pan with olive oil and cook until each side has a nice golden brown color; turn.
• 4. While veggies are grilling/roasting, heat balsamic vinegar in a saucepan and reduce by at least half.
• 5. Arrange cooked veggies on a platter, top with goat cheese and drizzle balsamic vinegar over the top and nuts (optional).
• 6. Serve with crunchy bread, warm, soft pita/flat bread.

• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Remove vegetables from the marinade, and shake off excess. Reserve remaining marinade.
• Grill vegetables on preheated grill until tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer grilled vegetables to a large platter. Whisk remaining marinade with balsamic vinegar; pour over vegetables. Top with avocado and goat cheese, then season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with basil to serve.

GRILLED VEGETABLE AND GOAT CHEESE PIZZA

Steps:

• Pre-heat your BBQ (or grill pan) to medium-high. Place cut vegetables in perforated grilling basket and grill until soft and starting to brown. Remove from BBQ and set aside while you assemble your pizza. At the same time, hand-crush tomatoes from a can of good plum tomatoes. Season with salt, pepper and some oregano and simmer on the stove-top over medium-low heat until thickened. Set aside to cool a bit. (*Note: if you're in a hurry, you can skip the simmering and just place some hand-crushed tomatoes right on to your pizza dough).
• Pre-heat oven to 500° F. with pizza stone on middle rack (if using). Press out your pizza dough and spoon on tomatoes or pizza sauce. Top with grilled vegetables and top with crumbled goat cheese. Bake in pre-heated oven for 10-15 minutes, until crust is golden and toppings are hot.
• Top with a drizzle of balsamic glaze and sprinkle with chopped parsley, if desired.
