Red Pepper And Feta Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Heat gas or charcoal grill. Cut bell peppers lengthwise into quarters; remove stems, seeds and membranes. Lightly brush onion slices with oil.
• Place pepper wedges, skin side down, and onions on grill over medium heat. Cover grill; cook about 10 minutes, turning occasionally, until pepper skins are completely blackened and blistered and onions are tender.
• Set onions aside. Immediately place pepper wedges in medium bowl. Cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap. Cool 5 minutes. Peel off blackened skin; rinse quickly with water. Cut peppers into strips. Return peppers to bowl; add onions.
• In small bowl, mix 1/4 cup oil, the vinegar, garlic, salt and pepper with whisk. Add 2 tablespoons dressing to onion mixture; toss to coat. In large bowl, toss arugula with remaining dressing. Top with onion mixture, walnuts and cheese. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Combine bell peppers, feta cheese, and onion in a large bowl.
• Combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, mustard, honey, garlic, salt, pepper, and sugar in a small lidded jar and shake vigorously to combine. Pour over salad and toss to combine.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Wash peppers and lay them in a baking dish. Pour the olive oil over the peppers and bake for about 35 minutes, until wilted and beginning to turn brown. Remove peppers from oven and cover with foil or a towel. Allow to cool for at least 30 minutes. Carefully remove as much peel as you can from the peppers; discard. Some peel may be stubborn and remain - that's ok. Remove the centers and seeds also.
• Cut peppers into 1-inch pieces and add to a large bowl. Add parsley, feta, lemon zest, and the oil that the peppers cooked in. Toss and serve.
• Keeps refrigerated for about two days. I think the salad tastes best served closer to room temperature.

Steps:

• Combine tomatoes, all bell peppers, and onion in a large bowl. Crumble feta cheese on top.
• Stir together oil, vinegar, salt, sugar, and black pepper in a cup. Pour over salad and toss to combine.

Steps:

• To make dressing: place garlic, ginger, and oils into a small pan over medium heat. Cook just until the garlic turns white; do not allow garlic to brown. If garlic browns, toss out and start over. Transfer to a bowl and allow to cool to room temperature. The dressing may be made several hours in advance.
• Roast the pepper quarters under a broiler until skin blackens and blisters. Wrap in damp paper towels and place in a small paper bag, folding top down to close. Allow to sit until cooled enough to handle, 15-20 minutes.
• Peel, trim, and cut each quarter into halves.
• Slice the feta into 8 slices.
• On each of 4 salad plates, place one strip of pepper. Add a slice of feta, then top with 2 basil leaves. Repeat layers, fanning or arranging the layers so that each layer is visible.
• Cover loosely with damp paper towels and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• To serve, bring salads to room temperature. Drizzle the dressing over the salads and grind pepper over the top to taste. Garnish with a sprig of basil leaves and serve with lime wedges to squeeze over the salad.

Steps:

• Combine ruby Port, Sherry wine vinegar, sugar, cinnamon stick and nutmeg in heavy medium saucepan. Boil mixture over medium-high heat until sugar dissolves and mixture is reduced to 2/3 cup, stirring frequently, about 12 minutes. Transfer mixture, including cinnamon stick, to blender. With machine running, gradually add vegetable oil and blend well. Strain vinaigrette into small bowl. (Vinaigrette can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Bring to room temperature before using.)
• Char red bell pepper over gas flame or in broiler until blackened on all sides. Enclose pepper in paper bag. Let stand 10 minutes. Peel and seed pepper. Cut into thin strips. Combine bell pepper strips, greens and feta in bowl. Toss with dressing to coat. Divide among plates and serve.

Steps:

• Combine herb salad mix, chopped roasted red peppers, and toasted walnuts in large bowl. Drain feta cheese, reserving oil-and-spice mixture from jar. Sprinkle feta cheese over salad. Whisk 3 tablespoons reserved oil-and- spice mixture with red wine vinegar in small bowl. Drizzle dressing over salad and toss to coat thoroughly. Season salad to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Divide salad among plates and serve.

Steps:

• Place the bulgar wheat in a large bowl, add the boiling water and leave to soak for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally with a fork, until the water has been absorbed.
• In a mixing bowl, whisk together the oil, lemon juice and seasoning.
• Pour oil mixture over the bulgar wheat, add the herbs and mix well.
• Then mix in the remaining ingredients.
• Cover and chill until required.
• Stir in olives just before serving if desired.
• Serve garnished with lime wedges.
