Ready In: 25 mins
Serves: 8
Ingredients
Sherry Vinaigrette
- 1⁄2 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 2 teaspoons chopped fresh basil
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon salt
Salad
- 1 lb portobello mushroom cap, cut into 1/4- inch slices
- 1 lb oyster mushroom, stemmed, coarsely chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 shallots, finely chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs, such as a flat-leaf parsley, chives
- oregano or rosemary
- 8 puff pastry shells
- 4 ounces goal cheese, crumbled
- mixed field greens, trimmed, torn
Directions
- For the vinaigrette, whisk the olive oil, sherry vinegar, sugar, basil, Dijon mustard and salt in a bowl until mixed.
- For the salad, sauté the mushrooms in the olive oil in a skillet over high heat just until seared on all sides. Add the shallots and garlic. Saute until the mushrooms are tender. Remove from heat. Stir in the fresh herbs.
- Arrange the pastry shells on a baking sheet. Reserve ¼ cup of the goat cheese. Divide the remaining goat cheese evenly among the pastry shells. Spoon the mushroom mixture over the goat cheese. Sprinkle with the reserved goat cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for 5 minutes or until the cheese melts and the mushroom mixture is heated through.
- Toss the greens with the vinaigrette in a bowl until coated and spoon evenly onto 8 serving plates. Arrange 1 mushroom-filled pastry shell on each plate. Serve immediately.
