BAREFOOT CONTESSA'S ROASTED PEPPER AND GOAT CHEESE SANDWICHES



Barefoot Contessa's Roasted Pepper and Goat Cheese Sandwiches image

I had seen Ina Garten prepare this sandwich on one of her Barefoot Contessa episodes. It looked to die for, and when I finally had time to try it, my suspicions were confirmed. It is so flavorful and just down right yummy. She also prepared a Fresh Pea soup to pair with it, I can't wait to try that, too.

Time 50m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 large red bell peppers, may substitute yellow
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
2 tablespoons capers, drained
1 large ciabatta, halved horizontally
1 (11 ounce) garlic and herb goat cheese, at room temperature
8 -10 large basil leaves
3 slices red onions, very thin
kosher salt
fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
  • Place the whole peppers on a sheet pan and place in the oven for 30 to 40 minutes, until the skins are completely wrinkled and the peppers are charred, turning them twice during roasting. Remove the pan from the oven and immediately cover it tightly with aluminum foil. Set aside for 30 minutes, or until the peppers are cool enough to handle.
  • Meanwhile, combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • Remove the stem from each pepper and cut them in quarters. Remove the peels and seeds and place the peppers in a bowl along with any juices that have collected. Discard the stems, peels, and seeds. Pour the oil and vinegar mixture over the peppers. Stir in the capers. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for a few hours to allow the flavors to blend.
  • To assemble the sandwiches, spread the bottom half of the loaf with the goat cheese. Add a layer of peppers and then a layer of basil leaves. Separate the onions into rings and spread out on top. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover with the top half of the ciabatta and cut into individual servings.

ROASTED PEPPER AND GOAT CHEESE SANDWICH



Roasted Pepper and Goat Cheese Sandwich image

Travel sandwiches require good keeping properties. The ingredients have to hold up for hours at room temperature and can't be too moist, or the bread will become soggy and fall apart. In deference to fellow travelers, I choose fillings that taste great but aren't pungent. (Garlic aioli has a place in my life, but it's not within the confines of an airplane.)

Categories     dinner, for one, lunch, quick, sandwiches, main course

Time 10m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 thick slices whole wheat country bread or 1 ciabatta roll, split
1 1/2 ounces goat cheese (about 1/3 cup), at room temperature
1/2 tablespoon finely chopped fresh herbs, such as tarragon, parsley or chives
1/3 to 1/2 large grilled or roasted red pepper (see note)

Steps:

  • If using whole wheat bread, lightly toast it. This will prevent sandwich from becoming soggy. If using a roll with a hard crust, there is no need to toast.
  • In a bowl, mash goat cheese with a fork or spoon and stir in chopped herbs.
  • Spread equal amounts of goat cheese on each slice of bread or on both halves of roll. Top the bottom half with roasted pepper and cover with other slice of bread or half of roll. Cut in half if using bread, or into quarters if using a ciabatta roll. Wrap each piece tightly in plastic if transporting. The sandwich keeps well for 2 days.

HERBED GOAT CHEESE



Herbed Goat Cheese image

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h10m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 (6-ounce) creamy goat cheese disks, such as Coach Farm
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Minced fresh dill
Julienned fresh basil leaves
Crushed red pepper flakes
Good olive oil
Bread or crackers, for serving

Steps:

  • Find a small, wide-mouth canning jar or small glass vase (3 1/2 inches in diameter by 4 inches high), just large enough to hold the two goat cheeses on top of each other with a little room to spare. Cut each cheese in half horizontally, making 2 rounds from each. (A piece of dental floss makes this easier.)
  • Place half of the first disk flat in the jar, sprinkle with salt and pepper, then with 1/2 teaspoon dill, 1 teaspoon basil, and a few red pepper flakes, and drizzle with 1/2 tablespoon olive oil. Place another disk of cheese on top and repeat the seasonings, herbs, and oil. Continue with the remaining cheese disks, piling one on top of the other with oil and seasonings in between. When all the disks are stacked and seasoned, drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil on top. Cover and set aside at room temperature for one hour or refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Serve at room temperature with bread or crackers for people to help themselves.
