Best Grilled Bread With Roasted Garlic Mushroom Salad Recipes

GRILLED BREAD (GARLIC OR PLAIN!)

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium-high heat (375 to 450 degrees).
• Brush each side of the bread lightly with olive oil. Place the slices on a baking sheet and sprinkle with 1 pinch of salt on top of each. Grill 1 to 2 minutes per side, until crispy and just starting to char on the edges.
• Remove from the heat. If desired, rub each slice with the cut side of the garlic and a bit of butter or additional olive oil (we rubbed on a small pat of butter between all the slices). Add another sprinkle of kosher salt if serving plain as garlic bread, and top with chopped herbs if desired.

GRILLED MUSHROOM FLATBREAD

Steps:

• Combine 1 cup of the oil and the garlic in a small pot over medium-high heat and bring to a simmer. Turn the heat to low and cook until the edges of the garlic are slightly golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Turn off the heat and let cool.
• Puree the garlic, 1/2 cup of the cooking oil and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt until smooth. Set aside. (The garlic puree will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 1 month.)
• Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil in a large cast-iron skillet over high heat. Saute the mushrooms in batches (do not overcrowd the pan). Add another tablespoon of oil between batches if needed. Do not stir the mushrooms until they brown on one side, about 3 minutes. Add some of the thyme, then stir the mushrooms and cook for another 2 minutes. Once all the mushrooms have been browned, combine them in the skillet and season with 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Add the wine and cook until evaporated, about 3 minutes. Add the creme fraiche and stir until fully incorporated. Turn off the heat and keep warm.
• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Roll out the pizza dough on a floured cutting board to about 1/2-inch thick. Lay the dough on the grill and cook until grill marks form, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook for 3 to 4 minutes more. Spread with 2 to 3 tablespoons of the garlic puree. Cover the grill and cook for 30 seconds. Transfer the flatbread to a cutting board and top with the mushrooms and the parsley. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon flaky sea salt.

GRILLED BREAD SALAD

Steps:

• With MINIMAL Effort:
• Before grilling rub the bread, with a cut clove of garlic and/or brush it with some olive oil and a sprinkle of salt.
• Add to the salad 1/4 cup chopped olives, 1 tablespoon capers, and/or 2 minced anchovy fillets.
• For a one-dish meal, grill or broil some shrimp or boneless chicken alongside the bread, then add the chunks to the salad. Or add some leftover or canned tuna (the Italian kind, packed in olive oil) to the mix.
• Start a gas or charcoal grill or preheat the broiler; the rack should be 4 to 6 inches from the heat source. Cut the bread lengthwise into quarters. Grill or broil the bread, watching carefully and turning as each side browns and chars slightly; total time will be less than 10 minutes.
• While the bread cools, mix together the next five ingredients in a large bowl. Mash the tomatoes with the back of a fork to release all of their juices. Season to taste with salt and pepper to taste. Cut the bread into 1/2- to 1-inch cubes (no larger) and toss it with the dressing.
• Let the bread sit for 20 to 30 minutes, tossing occasionally and tasting a piece every now and then. The salad is at its peak when the bread is fairly soft but some edges remain crisp, but you can serve it before or after it reaches that state. When it's ready, stir in the herb and serve.
• With MINIMAL Effort:
• Bread salad is a way of making good use of stale bread. The bread is softened, usually with water, olive oil, lemon juice, or a combination, then tossed with tomatoes and a variety of seasonings. Like many old-fashioned preparations created as a way to salvage food before it goes bad (count pickles and jam among these), bread salad has an appeal of its own. This is especially true in the summer, when good tomatoes are plentiful and may lead to the rather unusual problem of waiting around for bread to become stale.
• Or, of course, making it stale. I'd always solved this problem by drying bread in the oven until I realized that using the grill or broiler would not only dry the bread more quickly but, by charring the edges slightly, add another dimension of flavor to the salad. This procedure is really the same as making toast--exposing the bread to direct heat (rather than the indirect heat of the oven) to brown it as well as dry it. There's another benefit to grilling the bread in order to dry it out: The added flavor makes it possible to strip the salad to its bare minimum.
• This is a substantial salad, but it's still a side dish unless you're in the mood for a very light meal. Because it's juicy, almost saucy, and pleasantly acidic, this salad makes a nice accompaniment to simple grilled meat or poultry, and has a special affinity for dark fish such as tuna and swordfish.
• The only tricks here involve timing. You must watch the bread carefully as you grill or broil it; a slight char is good, but it's a short step from there to burned bread. And the time you allow the bread to soften after tossing it with the seasonings varies some; keep tasting until the texture pleases you. If your tomatoes are on the dry side, you might add a little extra liquid, in the form of more olive oil and lemon juice, or a light sprinkling of water.

GRILLED GARLIC BREAD

Steps:

• Cut bread in half lengthwise, and cut in half crosswise if very long. Brush cut surfaces of bread lightly with olive oil. Under a broiler or on a grill, toast bread, turning a few times, until cut surfaces are golden brown. (If using a broiler, you can place bread directly on the oven rack.)
• Remove bread to a work surface, grab a garlic clove with your fingertips and rub it lightly over the cut surfaces of the bread. (The papery skin of the garlic will come off.) When the bread is well scented with garlic, brush again with olive oil and toast again. If using tomato, rub the cut surfaces against the bread so the bread absorbs the juice. Oil and toast bread one last time, until golden and charred. Sprinkle lightly with salt and serve immediately.

ROASTED GARLIC BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Slice the tops off of garlic heads so the tip of each clove is exposed. Place garlic on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Bake until garlic is soft, about 30 minutes.
• Set the oven to broil. Slice the loaf of bread in half horizontally, and place cut-side up on a baking sheet.
• Squeeze the cloves of garlic from their skins into a medium bowl. Stir in the butter, parsley, and Parmesan cheese until well blended. Spread onto the cut sides of the bread.
• Broil bread until toasted, about 5 minutes.

SHEET TRAY ROASTED MUSHROOM SALAD RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line 2 baking sheets with reusable baking mats or parchment paper.
• Spread the cremini mushrooms in an even layer on 1 baking sheet and the shiitake mushrooms on the other. Drizzle ⅓ cup (80 ml) olive oil over the mushrooms, dividing evenly. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss well to coat evenly.
• Roast the mushrooms for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until crisp and tender. Remove from the oven and set aside. Leave the oven on.
• Meanwhile, make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the mustard, honey, and lemon juice. Slowly drizzle in the remaining ½ cup (120 ml) olive oil, whisking constantly, until the dressing is emulsified and thickened. Season with salt to taste. Set aside.
• Scatter the peas, shallot, garlic, and lemon zest over the baking sheets with the mushrooms. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Return the baking sheets to the oven for 5 minutes, until the peas are warmed through and the shallots are softened.
• Sprinkle the roasted vegetables with parsley and set aside to cool slightly.
• Place the arugula in a large serving bowl. Add the vegetables and half of the dressing and toss well. Top with the shaved Parmesan and serve with the remaining dressing on the side.
• Enjoy!
