Chopped Salad With Lemon And Dill Recipes

Steps:

• Blend 1/3 cup feta, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon each lemon juice, water and dill, 1 small grated garlic clove, and salt and pepper to taste in a mini food processor. Toss with 1 chopped romaine heart, 1 small chopped cucumber, 5 chopped radishes, 1 drained can chickpeas, 2 chopped celery stalks, and 1/3 cup each thawed frozen peas and toasted sliced almonds. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Mix shallot, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vinegar in a large bowl. Let sit 10 minutes, then mix in oil. Set vinaigrette aside.
• Meanwhile, mix a palmful of salt into a medium bowl of ice water; add peas. Let sit 10 minutes, then drain and pat dry (this makes them super crisp).
• Add peas, radishes, cucumbers, romaine, and radicchio to bowl with reserved vinaigrette; toss well to coat. Add feta and dill, season with salt and pepper, and toss again to combine. Transfer to a platter to serve.
• Do Ahead:
• Vinaigrette can be made 6 hours ahead. Cover and chill. Bring to room temperature before using.

Steps:

• In a salad bowl, mix together the romaine, arugula, dill and scallions. Sprinkle with salt. Grind pepper on top. Sprinkle the lemon juice and zest over the leaves. Pour on the olive oil. Using a salad fork and spoon, mix the leaves together until all the strips of lettuce are coated and the flavors are blended. Taste a leaf. Season again with salt, pepper, lemon juice or more oil, whatever is needed. Serve.

Steps:

• Place your baby new potatoes in a large saucepan filled with cold salted water and cook on medium heat until tender for about 20 minutes. While the potatoes are cooking, Place a colander over the boiling water and blanch the green peas for about 45 seconds.
