Frisée and Mushroom Salad with Goat Cheese and Walnuts
- Makes4-6 servings
- Cook Time35 minutes
The tangy flavor and creaminess of fresh goat cheese is a fine match for roasted portobello mushrooms, bitter greens and toasted walnuts in this salad. We like the texture and color of frisée and radicchio here, but if you prefer leafier greens, use watercress or arugula—which tend to be peppery instead of bitter. Prep the greens and cheese during the 10 minutes it takes for the mushrooms roast. To make the salad more filling, serve with sliced baguette and garnish individual portions with a poached egg.
Don’t forget to toast the walnuts. Put them into a 10-inch skillet and toast over medium, stirring, until golden brown and fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes, then transfer to a plate to cool. Chop half of the cooled nuts and leave the remainder whole, but reserve them separately because they’re added at different times for best flavor and texture.
