Bacon Arugula Tomato And Roasted Corn Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Toss the tomatoes with the balsamic vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl. Set aside until juicy, about 5 minutes. Toss the arugula with the olive oil, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl.
• Spread the arugula on a platter. Spoon the tomatoes and their juices on top, then drizzle with more olive oil and vinegar. Top with parmesan.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
• Put the bacon in a large, cold skillet then cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain. Set aside.
• Whisk together the mayonnaise, basil, sour cream, chives, parsley, lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds pepper in a large bowl.
• Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook according to the package directions. Drain and rinse under cold water to cool; add to the bowl with the dressing.
• Add the arugula and tomatoes to the bowl and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper and top with the bacon. The pasta salad is best if served right away.

Steps:

• Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to render fat; add onion and cook until just softened, about 5 minutes, then add corn. Continue cooking, stirring or shaking pan occasionally, until corn begins to brown a bit, about 5 more minutes; remove from heat and let cool for a few minutes. Drain fat if you wish. Put lime juice in a large bowl and add bacon-corn mixture; then toss with remaining ingredients. Taste, adjust the seasoning and serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• In a wok or large skillet set over medium-high heat, add the bacon and cook, stirring, until it is very crisp, and the fat has rendered, about 10 minutes. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside. Pour the bacon fat out from the skillet until about 2 tablespoons remain. Return the pan to medium-high heat, add the shallots to the bacon fat, and cook, stirring, until soft, about 3 minutes. Add the corn and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the corn begins to brown, about 6 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes and chiles. Add the crispy bacon and fish sauce and remove from the heat. Then add the cilantro, lime juice and avocado. Gently toss to combine. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Serve warm, chilled or at room temperature.

• Put lime juice in a large bowl and add bacon-corn mixture; then toss with remaining ingredients. Taste, adjust the seasoning and serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Add the tomatoes to a shallow 2-quart casserole dish in a single layer.
• Toss the tomatoes with the oil, and salt and pepper, to taste. Make sure the tomatoes are cut side up after tossing. Roast until the tomatoes are extremely tender, about 35 to 40 minutes. Remove them from the oven and keep warm.
• In a large salad bowl, toss the arugula, mozzarella balls, basil and the warm tomatoes along with any juices from the dish. Drizzle with some good balsamic and season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Steps:

• In a bowl, whisk together oil, vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper. Stir in basil. Add tomatoes, corn, arugula and onion; toss to coat.

Steps:

• Steam the corn until tender, 4 to 5 minutes. When it is cool enough to handle, cut the kernels from the cobs.
• Combine the corn, arugula, herbs and Parmesan in a salad bowl. In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the sherry vinegar, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, garlic, salt, pepper and olive oil.
• Just before serving, toss the salad with the dressing. Garnish with the tomato wedges and serve.

Steps:

• Whisk 1/2 cup oil, vinegar, basil, diced tomatoes, garlic and rosemary in small bowl until well blended. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Preheat broiler. Brush corn with 1 teaspoon oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Broil corn until crisp-tender and golden brown in spots, turning frequently, about 7 minutes. Cool. Cut corn kernels off cob. Place kernels in large bowl.
• Add arugula, quartered tomatoes and pecans to bowl with corn. Toss salad with enough dressing to coat evenly. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish salad with shaved Parmesan cheese and serve.

Steps:

• Cook the corn ears, in their husks, either on the grill for a smokey flavor, or by steaming in a large covered stock pot with an inch of boiling water at the bottom of the pot, for 12-15 minutes.
• Let the corn cool (can run under cold water to speed up the cooling), remove the husks and silk. I recommend cooking the corn in the husks for the added flavor that the husks impart.
• If you boil or steam the corn ears after you've already husked them, or if you cook them in the microwave, reduce the cooking time by a few minutes.To remove the kernels from the cobs, stand a corn cob vertically over a large, shallow bowl.
• Use a sharp knife to make long, downward strokes, removing the kernels from the cob, as you work your way around the cob. Note: it may help to work over a low table, to be in a better ergonomic position to cut the cobs this way.
• In a medium sized bowl, mix together the corn, chopped arugula, bacon, and onions. In a separate bowl, whisk together the oil, vinegar, salt and pepper, and cumin.
• Mix dressing into salad just before serving. Taste and add more vinegar if necessary to balance the sweetness of the corn.
