Cooking InstructionsHide images
step 1
In a large bowl, add Fresh Thyme (1 Tbsp) and Fresh Chives (1 Tbsp).
step 2
Process the Melba Toast (2 cups) in a food processer until fine like breadcrumbs, for about a minute and a half. Transfer to a mixing bowl and season with Freshly Ground Black Pepper (1 tsp).
step 3
Cut the Goat Cheese (1 1/2 cups) into equal pieces using dental floss or kitchen twine. Roll each piece to make a small ball (the size of a golf ball) using your hands.
step 4
Whisk large Eggs (3) and Dijon Mustard (2 Tbsp) in a small bowl.
step 5
Coat each goat cheese ball with chopped thyme and chive herb mixture. Transfer herb-coated goat cheese balls into egg mixture.
step 6
Using your hands, press the Melba Toast crumbs into the goat cheese balls to make sure that they are nicely adhered. Place them on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper.
step 7
Place the baking sheet into the freezer and freeze them for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, place the oven rack in the top position and preheat oven to 475 degrees F (250 degrees C).
step 8
In a small bowl, whisk Extra-Virgin Olive Oil (3 Tbsp), Red Wine Vinegar (1 Tbsp), Dijon Mustard (2 tsp), Shallot (1 tsp) and Salt (1 pinch) until combined. Set aside.
step 9
Remove the cheese from the freezer and lightly brush all sides of each cheese ball with Extra-Virgin Olive Oil (1 Tbsp).
step 10
Transfer the baking sheet into the oven and bake for 8 minutes.
step 11
Using a spatula place the cheese to a paper towel lined plate and let cool for 3 minutes.
step 12
Place the Salad Greens (7 cups) in a bowl and drizzle with the salad dressing. Toss to coat.
step 13
Divide green salad among individual plates; place as many goat cheese balls and Freshly Ground Black Pepper (to taste) you want and serve.
