Bean And Salt Cod Salad With Arugula And Capers Recipes

Steps:

• The night before, place the beans in a large bowl and add water to cover by 2 inches. Soak overnight in the refrigerator. The following day, drain the beans, rinse under cold water, and drain again.
• Heat the 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add the red onion and saute over medium-low heat for 7 to 9 minutes, until wilted. Add the beans and enough water to cover them by 3 inches. Bring to a boil and skim off any foam that rises to the surface. Reduce the heat and simmer gently for 45 minutes, until tender. Drain the beans and onions and transfer to a mixing bowl.
• Meanwhile, heat the 1/2 cup of olive oil in a 10- to 12-inch saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, rosemary, red pepper flakes, and prosciutto and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, until fragrant. Pour the hot oil mixture over the warm drained beans, tossing well. Allow to cool for 10 minutes only. While still warm, stir in the lemon zest, lemon juice, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon black pepper. Place in a large, shallow serving bowl, surround with arugula, taste for seasonings, and serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook the garlic in the hot oil about 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, wine, sage, and thyme; increase the heat to medium-high and simmer 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the cannellini beans and basil. Season with salt and pepper. Continue cooking until beans are heated through, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Arrange the arugula on a serving platter. Spoon the bean mixture over the arugula. Top with the shaved Parmesan cheese if desired.

Steps:

• Combine beans, capers and salt cod in a bowl. Taste and add pepper and, if necessary, salt.
• Whisk lemon juice and oil together, along with the shallot and a little salt and pepper, until smooth and well combined. (You can use a small blender instead of a whisk.) Taste, and add more lemon juice or olive oil as necessary. Toss about half with the arugula in a large bowl. Add parsley to salt cod mixture, and toss.
• To serve, put a portion of arugula on a plate. Top with a portion of salt cod mixture, and spoon some remaining dressing over all.

Steps:

• Salad: In a large salad bowl, combine the arugula, beans, red onion, and capers.
• Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, maple syrup and lemon zest. Slowly whisk in the oil until smooth and combined. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Pour the dressing over the salad and toss well to coat. Serve.

Steps:

• Combine tomatoes, basil, olive oil, Pinot Gris, onion, garlic, salt, and black pepper together in a bowl; refrigerate until flavors blend, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Place black cod, skin-side down, on the prepared baking sheet. Mix Dijon mustard and butter together in a small bowl.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes. Flip fish and brush mustard-butter over fish, coating the surface completely. Continue baking fish until it flakes easily with a fork, 5 to 6 minutes. Cut fish into 4 pieces.
• Spread arugula onto serving plates. Arrange fish onto the arugula and top with tomato mixture and Parmesan cheese.
