Mixed Greens With Marinated Red Onions And Sunflower Seeds Recipes

Steps:

• Pull the leaf portions of the collard, mustard, and turnip greens away from the tough stems, and discard the stems. Gently wash the greens in warm water to remove all soil and sand. Partially fill a clean sink with warm water, and stir in 3 tablespoons of salt and 2 cups of chicken broth; allow greens to soak in the mixture for 10 minutes. Scoop up the greens and allow to drain in a colander; discard used chicken broth. Do not rinse the greens.
• Pour the remaining 2 cups of chicken broth into a large pot, and mix in the greens. Stir in vegetable oil, garlic, bacon bits, and sugar, and season with salt and black pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook until the greens are tender, stirring occasionally, 45 minutes to 1 hour.

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add extra-virgin olive oil and onion. Sear onion and mustard seeds, 2 minutes. Add greens and toss with tongs in oil. Sear greens 2 to 3 minutes. Add vinegar to the pan. Remove pan from heat and season greens with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine 1 tablespoon lime juice, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, and 1 teaspoon honey. Add onion; toss to coat. Cover with plastic wrap; marinate at room temperature up to 2 hours or in the refrigerator up to 5 days.
• When ready to serve, make dressing: In a small bowl, combine remaining tablespoon lime juice with remaining 2 teaspoons soy sauce and 1 teaspoon honey. Slowly add oil in a steady stream, whisking until emulsified. Place greens in a salad bowl. Using tongs or a slotted spoon, transfer onions to salad bowl, draining off excess marinade. Pour dressing over salad mixture in bowl. Add sunflower and sesame seeds; toss to combine. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Place 2 onions cut side down on baking sheet. Pour 2 tablespoons oil over. Sprinkle with sugar. Bake onions 30 minutes; turn onions over and bake until brown and caramelized, about 30 minutes longer. Cool. Transfer onions to processor. Add remaining 1 cup oil, broth and vinegar and puree (mixture will be thick). Season with salt and pepper. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
• Combine greens, 1/2 cup walnuts and half of red onion in large bowl. Add enough dressing to coat greens; toss well. Sprinkle remaining walnuts and red onion over and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350. Rinse each beet and wrap in foil. Place on oven rack and roast until tender, about 1 hour 10 minutes. Cool beets. Peel; cut into wedges. Whisk oil, vinegar and fennel fronds in medium bowl to blend. Season dressing with salt and pepper. Mix onions into dressing. (Beets and onions can be made 1 day ahead. Cover separately; chill.) Mix lettuces and sliced fennel in bowl. Add beets. Using slotted spoon, transfer onions from dressing to salad. Toss salad with enough dressing to coat.

Steps:

• Mix together the dough for the crust and set it in a warm spot to rise. Meanwhile prepare the filling.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Fill a bowl with cold water. Cut the onion into quarters, cutting from root to stem end, then cut thin slices across the grain.
• When the water in the pot reaches a boil, salt generously and add the greens. Boil for about 3 minutes, until tender. Use a skimmer to transfer the greens to the bowl of cold water, then drain. Take the greens up by the handful and squeeze out excess water. You can squeeze out the water most effectively if you take up small handfuls. Then coarsely chop (they are already chopped but the stems can be big). Set aside.
• Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a wide saucepan or a large skillet and add the onions. Cook, stirring often, until soft and golden, about 10 minutes. After the first couple of minutes of cooking add a generous pinch of salt so they don't brown too quickly or stick to the pan. When the onions are nicely colored and soft add the garlic and continue to cook for another 30 seconds to a minute, until fragrant. Stir in the greens and combine well with the onions. Add the za'atar and season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in the chickpeas, taste and adjust seasonings, and set aside.
• Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Crumble in the feta and stir in the greens mixture. Stir well to combine.
• Dust a large work surface with flour and turn out the dough. Shape into a ball and let rest for 5 minutes. Then roll out into a thin round, 16 to 18 inches in diameter. Line a sheet pan with parchment and place the round in the middle, with the edges overlapping the pan (this will eliminate the need to lift the galette once it is filled). Place the filling in the middle of the rolled out pastry and spread it to a circle, leaving a 3 or 4-inch margin all the way around the pastry. Fold the edges in over the filling, pleating them to cover the filling and drawing them up to the middle of the galette, so that the filling is enclosed. The finished galette should be about 10 to 11 inches in diameter. There can be a small circle of exposed filling in the middle but it shouldn't be more than an inch in diameter. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the freezer for 45 minutes to an hour.
• Meanwhile, heat the oven to 375 degrees. Remove the galette from the freezer, brush with egg wash, and place in the oven. Bake 50 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let sit for at least 15 minutes before serving.
