Ingredients

2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound ripe tomatoes, roughly chopped
2 Persian cucumbers, thinly sliced
1 15-ounce can chickpeas, drained, rinsed and blotted dry
3 scallions, thinly sliced
4 cups torn stale ciabatta bread (about 1-inch pieces)
2 tablespoons jarred capers in brine, drained
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/4 pounds peeled and deveined large shrimp
3/4 cup roughly chopped mixed fresh herbs (such as parsley, dill and oregano)

Steps:

Whisk the vinegar and mustard in a large bowl. Slowly whisk in 1/4 cup olive oil to make a dressing. Add the tomatoes, cucumbers, chickpeas, scallions, ciabatta, capers, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and toss well to combine. Set aside to allow the bread to absorb the dressing, about 10 minutes.
Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper, add to the skillet and cook, turning once, until browned and crisped, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
Add all but 2 tablespoons of the herbs to the salad and toss. Divide among plates or bowls. Top with the shrimp and sprinkle with the remaining herbs.

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

Good olive oil
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons champagne vinegar
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 hothouse cucumber, unpeeled, seeded and sliced 1/2-inch thick
1 large ripe tomato, cut into 1-inch cubes
10 large basil leaves
3 tablespoons capers, drained
1 red onion, sliced into 1/4 inch rounds
1 red bell pepper, seeded and cut into 3 large pieces
1 yellow bell pepper, seeded and cut into 3 large pieces
1/2 small ficelle, cut into 1-inch thick slices

Steps:

Prepare a charcoal grill with hot coals. Brush the grilling rack with olive oil.
In a small bowl, whisk together the garlic, mustard, vinegar, 1/4 cup olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Set aside.
Place the cucumber, tomato, basil and capers in a large bowl, sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss together. Set aside.
When the grill is ready, brush 1 side of the onion slices and the peppers with olive oil. Place them, olive oil side down, on the grill and cook for 4 minutes. Brush the other side with olive oil, turn them over and continue cooking an additional 4 minutes. Remove the vegetables from the grill and place on a cutting board. Slice the peppers 1/2-inch thick, separate the onion rings and add them both to the cucumber mixture.
Brush the bread slices on both sides with olive oil and toast them on the grill until golden. Add them to the cucumber mixture. Pour the reserved vinaigrette over the vegetables and toss together. Serve warm.
