Time 17m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon champagne vinegar or 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1/2 orange, zest of
1 tablespoon fresh orange juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 cup olive oil
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
8 ounces log goat cheese
1 cup finely chopped toasted pecans
1 head frisee, leaves torn
1/2 head radicchio, thinly sliced
4 Belgian endive, thinly sliced
4 oranges, peeled and segmented

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350ºF.
  • To make the vinaigrette, in a small bowl, whisk together all the ingredients blend until emulsified. Set aside.
  • Cut the goat cheese into 1-oz. rounds. Using your fingers, carefully reshape any uneven rounds. Put the pecans in a breading pan or small bowl. Roll the goat cheese rounds in the pecans, pressing lightly so they adhere, then transfer to a baking sheet. Bake until the cheese is just soft and warm, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in large bowl, combine the frisée, radicchio and endive. Add the vinaigrette and toss to coat the greens evenly. Divide among 8 salad bowls or plates. Using a metal spatula, transfer 1 goat cheese round to each salad and garnish with the orange segments. Serve immediately.
