ROASTED ASPARAGUS & MUSHROOM SALAD WITH CREAMY MUSTARD DRESS



Roasted Asparagus & Mushroom Salad With Creamy Mustard Dress image

This is a light and healthy salad that is perfect as a side salad, but also is elegant for a dinner party. But add some grilled chicken and it can become a main dish. Take advantage of fresh summer produce. You could always add fresh tomatoes or other favorites if you like.

Time 15m

Yield 4 Servings, more (4-6) if served family style, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 lb asparagus, cut in 1 1/2-inch pieces on an angle
2 cups cremini mushrooms (cut in half or quarters depending on the size more of less to taste)
1 small onion, cut in quarters and thin sliced
6 cups bibb lettuce (1 1/2 cups per person)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon italian seasoning
salt
pepper
6 tablespoons plain yogurt
2 teaspoons stone ground mustard (dijon will work, but nearly as good)
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese, grated
1 -2 teaspoon milk (used to thin out the dressing, use as much as you like)
salt, to taste (go easy, the cheese is salty)
pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Dressing -- Make this ahead and refrigerate until ready to use. In a small bowl, add the yogurt, mustard and parmesan, salt and pepper to taste and refrigerate until ready to use. If the dressing is too thick for you, add a little of the milk. I usually add about 1 teaspoon, but add more if you like the dressing a bit thinner. Make ahead, it is even better.
  • Asparagus and Mushrooms -- When ready to make the salad, add the asparagus and mushrooms to a small bowl and mix with the olive oil, italian seasoning, pinch of salt and pepper. Toss well and add to a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or not. The parchment paper makes for a quick clean up. Roast in a 425 degree oven, middle shelf for 7-10 minutes. You want the asparagus and mushrooms roasted and slightly tender, but not over done.
  • Salad and Plate -- In a large bowl, add 1 tablespoon of the dressing and toss with the lettuce and onion. Plate about 1 1/2 cups of the lettuce per plate and top with the asparagus and mushrooms. Drizzle the creamy dressing over the salad and serve. ENJOY! This is a simple but very good salad.

THE BEST ROASTED ASPARAGUS



The Best Roasted Asparagus image

The perfect roasted asparagus should be lightly browned and tender, yet bright green and crisp. Roasting the spears at a high temperature helps achieve this. We also browned grated Parmesan to make a nutty, crumbly frico topping. Wait until ready to serve to top the vegetables so the crisped cheese stays crunchy.

Categories     side-dish

Time 20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound thin asparagus, trimmed
3 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese (about 1 1/2 ounces)
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
Juice of 1/4 lemon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a wire rack.
  • Put the asparagus, olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Toss to coat evenly. Spread the asparagus in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast for 10 to 12 minutes, until lightly browned and tender, but still bright green.
  • Meanwhile, spread the Parmesan evenly in the bottom of a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook undisturbed until the cheese melts, sticks together and turns golden brown, about 2 minutes, then flip with a rubber spatula and cook until golden on the second side, about 2 minutes more. Transfer the frico to a wire rack-lined baking sheet to cool completely, about 2 minutes. Break the frico into small crumbles and put in a small bowl. Add the lemon zest and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and toss to combine.
  • Transfer the roasted asparagus to a serving platter and squeeze the fresh lemon juice over the top. Top with the crumbled frico mixture.

MUSHROOM BARLEY AND ROASTED ASPARAGUS SALAD



Mushroom Barley and Roasted Asparagus Salad image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     side-dish

Time 2h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 cup pearl barley, rinsed
2 sprigs fresh thyme, plus 1 tablespoon minced leaves
3 stems fresh flat-leaf parsley, plus 1/3 cup chopped leaves
1 bay leaf
2 lemons, zest peeled in large strips
10 ounces button mushrooms, trimmed and thinly sliced (about 4 cups)
1/3 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
Freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for cooking the asparagus
1/2 medium shallot, minced
2 bunches medium asparagus, woody stems trimmed (about 2 pounds)

Steps:

  • Put the barley in a medium pot with water to cover by a few inches and salt it generously. Tie the thyme sprigs, parsley stems, and bay leaf together with a piece of kitchen twine and add to the pot, along with the lemon peel. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 30 minutes. Drain and remove the herbs and lemon.
  • Meanwhile, toss the mushrooms with 2 tablespoons of the lemon juice and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt in a large bowl. Whisk the remaining lemon juice with the mustard, remaining salt, and pepper, to taste, in a small bowl. Gradually whisk in the olive oil, starting with a few drops and then adding the rest in a steady stream to make a smooth, slightly thick vinaigrette. Add the shallots.
  • Toss the mushrooms, barley, and the dressing together. Stir in the chopped herbs. Set aside at room temperature for about 1 hour for the flavors to come together.
  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Spread the spears in a single layer in a shallow baking pan, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt, and roll to coat thoroughly. Roast the asparagus until lightly browned and tender, about 10 minutes, giving the pan a good shake about halfway through.
  • Spread the roasted asparagus on a serving platter. Spoon the barley salad on top and serve.
