Fried Goat Cheese Salad With Grilled Sweet Corn Recipes

Steps:

• Slice the Montrachet into 12 (1/2-inch-thick) slices. (The easiest way to slice goat cheese is to use a length of dental floss.) Dip each slice into the beaten egg whites, then the bread crumbs, being sure the cheese is thoroughly coated. Place the slices on a rack and chill them for at least 15 minutes.
• For the dressing, place the vinegars, sugar, salt, pepper, and egg yolk in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade and blend for 1 minute. With the motor running, slowly pour the olive oil through the feed tube until the vinaigrette is thickened. Season, to taste.
• Toss the salad greens with enough dressing to moisten, then divide them among 6 plates.
• Melt 1 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a saute pan over medium-high heat until just under smoking. Cook the goat cheese rounds quickly on both sides until browned on the outside but not melted inside. Top each salad with 2 warm rounds and serve.

Steps:

• Soak 1 small sliced shallot in ice water. Whisk 2 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 teaspoon honey and 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large bowl. Add the kernels from 4 ears of corn and season with salt; toss and let sit, 5 to 10 minutes. Drain the shallot and pat dry, then add to the corn along with 2 cups baby arugula and 1/4 cup sliced basil; toss. Season with salt and pepper and top with crumbled goat cheese.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onions and saute for 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the corn and saute 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in the garlic, jalapenos, cheese and cream. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes or until thickened. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Sprinkle tomatoes and cilantro over top and serve with tortilla chips.

Steps:

• In a medium pot heat canola oil to at least 375 degrees. Using hot water to keep the knife clean cut the goat cheese log into 1-inch circles. Have 3 separate dishes, one with the flour, one with 2 eggs beaten, and 1 with the breadcrumbs. Dip one round first into the flour and shake off the excess. Next, dip the round into the beaten egg, and then into the breadcrumbs. Repeat process until all rounds are coated with the breadcrumbs. Carefully fry the rounds in the oil until golden brown, approximately 30 seconds. Drain rounds on paper towels. Serve rounds topped with a little honey.
