1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon sea salt (more to taste)
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
1/4 to 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil

  • Drizzle in the olive oil while whisking and continue to whisk until the dressing is emulsified. Alternatively, combine everything in a jar with a tight-fitting lid and shake to combine.
  • If your dressing is too tangy, add more olive oil, to taste.

Categories     side-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic, grated, plus 1 unpeeled clove, smashed
1 small baguette, torn into medium pieces
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Juice of 2 lemons
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
4 white anchovies, minced
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 pounds lacinato kale, ends trimmed
1 pound red endive, halved lengthwise
1 pound escarole, halved lengthwise
1 cup sliced chives (about 1 1/2-inch pieces)
Freshly grated Parmesan, for serving

Steps:

  • Set up your grill for even medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, distribute the coals evenly. If using a gas grill, heat both sides evenly.
  • In a small saucepan set on the grill, melt the butter with the clove of smashed garlic. Remove the garlic.
  • Place the torn baguette in a mixing bowl and pour the melted garlic butter over the top. Toss to coat the bread and season with salt and pepper. Put the croutons in a cast-iron pan and place on the grill. Cover the grill and bake until golden brown and crisp, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • In the meantime, in a mason jar, add the lemon juice, olive oil, grated garlic, anchovies, Dijon and red pepper flakes. Season with salt and pepper and vigorously shake to combine.
  • Remove the croutons from the grill and set aside. Brush the kale leaves and the cut side of the endive and escarole with some of the lemon vinaigrette. Place on the grill, cut-side down, and char for about 2 minutes.
  • Remove from the grill, slice into bite-sized pieces and put in a large serving bowl. Add the croutons and chives and dress with the remainder of the vinaigrette. Add Parmesan and toss to combine. Serve.

GREEN BEANS WITH LEMON VINAIGRETTE



Green Beans With Lemon Vinaigrette image

Grab-and-go offerings of picnicky food are almost universally mediocre and exasperatingly expensive. Resist the temptation to outsource and make your own. This recipe is built to last. You can make it a day or two ahead of time, or leave it out on the counter if you're going to eat these green beans within a few hours of making it.

Provided by Mark Bittman

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 4

green beans
olive oil
lemon juice
garlic.

Steps:

  • Blanch green beans in boiling water, then plunge them into an ice bath to stop the cooking.
  • Toss with a vinaigrette made with olive oil, lemon juice and a tiny bit of minced garlic. (To turn this into a main dish, sear some tuna until crusty on the outside, but still raw in the middle. Cut into thick slices or chunks, and toss with the green beans and dressing.)
