Frisée Salad With Bacon Dates And Red Onion Recipes

FRISEE SALAD WITH EGG AND BACON

Steps:

• In a medium skillet over medium heat, saute the bacon until crisp. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Turn the heat off and whisk the shallots into the bacon grease. There should be about 1/4 cup of bacon grease; if it's shy of that amount, add some extra-virgin olive oil.
• In a small bowl, whisk the vinegar and Dijon until emulsified. Add in the bacon grease mixture and whisk. Whisk in the salt and pepper.
• To poach the eggs: Fill a nonstick skillet with about 2 inches of water and bring it to the barest simmer over medium heat; add a little vinegar if using. Crack the eggs, slipping them gently into the water one at a time, and cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, 3 to 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, gently scoop the eggs from the water and blot dry with a paper towel.
• In a large salad bowl, toss the frisee with the dressing and bacon. Divide the lettuce among 4 serving bowls and top each with an egg and a sprinkle of chives.

SALADE LYONNAISE

Steps:

• Put frisée or other greens in large salad bowl. Put olive oil in skillet over medium heat. When hot, add bacon and cook slowly until crisp all over, about 10 minutes. Add shallot or onion and cook until softened, a minute or two. Add vinegar and mustard to the skillet and bring just to a boil, stirring, then turn off heat.
• Meanwhile, bring about an inch of salted water to a boil in a small, deep skillet, then lower heat to barely bubbling. One at a time, break eggs into a shallow bowl and slip them into the bubbling water. Cook eggs for 3 to 5 minutes, just until the white is set and the yolk has filmed over. Remove each egg with a slotted spoon and drain briefly on paper towel.
• If necessary, gently reheat dressing, then pour over greens (they should wilt just a bit), toss and season with salt and pepper to taste. Top each portion with an egg and serve immediately. (Each person gets to break the egg.)

FRISEE SALAD WITH BLUE CHEESE, BACON AND HAZELNUTS

Steps:

• Place 1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large saute pan. Add the cut bacon and bring to a medium-high heat. Cook the bacon until it has become brown and crispy and a lot of fat has been rendered. This is a good thing!
• Place the bacon and the fat into a bowl large enough to fit all of the ingredients. Add the vinegar and the blue cheese and stir to combine. Season with salt. Add the frisee and gently toss to combine. If a little more oil or vinegar is needed do so in small increments and taste as you go. The salad should be well seasoned and dressed but not soggy. Divide the salad onto 4 individual serving plates. Sprinkle with the chopped hazelnuts.

HANGER STEAK & BACON SANDWICH WITH FRISéE & RED ONION JAM RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• Season hanger steak with salt, pepper, chili flake, herbs, and olive oil. Set aside, uncovered 1 hour up to 12 hours. Heat a grill on high heat. Sear steak on all sides, achieving a good crust. Cook steak to rare/medium rare. Remove from grill and let rest at least 15 minutes. Meanwhile, brush one side of the sliced bread with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill bread, oil side down until nice and toasty. Remove and let rest grilled side up. In a small saucepan, drizzle olive oil. Add red onions and cook until well caramelized. Add the remainder of ingredients and bring to a boil. Turn down heat and allow to slowly simmer until all liquid has reduced. Will keep for several weeks in the fridge. Thinly slice steak, against the grain. To build sandwich: spread red onion jam on grilled side of bread. Arrange thin slices of shoulder bacon topped with frisée, and drizzle with with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Arrange hanger steak on top and top sandwich with grilled bread. Enjoy with a dark English-style beer like a stout or porter.
