Warm Goat Cheese In Phyllo Recipes

Steps:

• Slice the goat cheese into 12 (1/2-inch-thick) slices. Dip each slice into the egg wash and then into the bread crumbs, being sure the cheese is thoroughly coated. Place the slices on a baking rack set on a sheet pan and chill for at least 15 minutes.
• Heat the oil and butter in a medium saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the goat cheese slices and cook on both sides until browned on the outside but not melted inside.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Unroll the phyllo dough sheets on a flat surface and cover them with a slightly damp towel (if the towel is too wet, the dough will get sticky). Working quickly, so the dough doesn't get dried out, place 1 sheet of phyllo dough on a board, lightly brush with melted butter, and lightly sprinkle with bread crumbs. Place a second sheet of phyllo dough on top, brush with the melted butter, and sprinkle with bread crumbs. Continue until you have 4 sheets stacked. Cut the sheets in half crosswise to make 2 almost squares.
• 2. Cut one of the goat cheese discs in half horizontally, making 2 thin discs. Place each disc in the center of one phyllo square. Starting at one corner, fold the phyllo up over the cheese and continue folding and pleating the phyllo around the cheese, as though you are wrapping a gift that is tied on top. You will end up with extra phyllo dough on top; twist the excess into a knot on top, to enclose the cheese. Brush the discs all over with melted butter and place them on a sheet pan lined with some parchment paper. Continue with the remaining phyllo dough and 2 goat cheese discs to make an additional 4 packages. Bake for about 20 minutes, until the phyllo dough is lightly browned. All them to cool for 5 minutes.
• 3. While the cheese packages are baking, put the salad greens in a large bowl. Whisk together the vinaigrette ingredients, except for the olive oil. Still whisking, slowly add the olive oil, making an emulsion. Toss the salad greens with enough of the vinaigrette to moisten (you won't use all of the vinaigrette).
• 4. Distribute the salad among 6 plates and put one warm goat cheese package in the center of each plate. Sprinkle with slat and pepper and serve. Enjoy!
