Radicchio Orange Bell Pepper And Arugula Salad With A Citrus Vinaigrette Recipes

TRICOLORE SALAD WITH ORANGES

Steps:

• Place the shallots in a small shallow bowl and pour the vinegar over them. Set aside for 10 minutes to macerate.
• In a large shallow serving bowl, combine the radicchio, endive, arugula, oranges, and olives. Lift the shallots from the vinegar with a slotted spoon, sprinkle them on the salad, and toss lightly (discard the vinegar).
• In a 1-cup glass measuring cup, whisk together the lemon juice, mustard, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. While whisking, slowly add the olive oil. Pour enough of the vinaigrette over the salad to moisten well. Sprinkle with one more teaspoon salt, toss well, and taste for seasonings. Serve at room temperature.

ARUGULA-CITRUS SALAD WITH PORK

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Combine 1/4 cup cold water, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small baking dish. Pierce the pork chops all over with a fork; add to the brine. Let sit, flipping once, 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk the mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce and honey mustard in a shallow dish. Combine the crushed croutons and parmesan in another shallow dish. Put the flour on a plate.
• Remove the pork from the brine; pat dry. Dredge in the flour, then the mayonnaise mixture, and then the crouton mixture, pressing to coat. Transfer to a rack set on a baking sheet. Bake until golden and cooked through, about 20 minutes.
• Slice off the top and bottom of 3 oranges with a paring knife, then cut off the peel and pith. Slice into rounds, discard any seeds and transfer to a large bowl. Squeeze the juice of the remaining 2 oranges into the bowl.
