Mushroom Goat Cheese Galette Recipes

MUSHROOM GOAT CHEESE GALETTE

Steps:

• Prepare Filling: 5.Heat very large (more surface area the better) skillet over very high heat. Add butter, followed by mushrooms, spreading into a single layer with a wooden spoon. Continue to saute--the mushrooms will quickly begin to release their moisture--keep cooking until most of the liquid has evaporated. 6. Add the sliced onion and smashed garlic and continue to saute until the onions are translucent--and the mushrooms and onion begin to caramelize and the bottom of the pan has formed a nice light brown fond. 7.Remove the pan from heat and deglaze with the dry sherry. Place back on the heat, add the sprigs of thyme and rosemary, and continue to cook over medium high heat until all of the sherry has evaporated. Season with salt and pepper to taste. 8.Remove and spread out on a baking sheet and allow to cool to room temperature. (Before using, discard the large sprigs of thyme and rosemary and garlic cloves). Assemble the Galette: 9.Preheat the oven to 400 degrees (F). 10.Remove the dough from the fridge and on a floured work surface, roll out into a 12-inch round. Transfer to a parchment lined baking sheet. 11.Crumble 3 ounces of the goat cheese into a bowl, add the (cooled) mushroom mixture, and stir gently. 12.Spread the mixture into the center of the dough--leaving a 1 1/2 inch border on the sides. Fold and pleat the edges of the dough border over the mushrooms--leaving the center exposed. 13.Bake for 30 minutes--remove from the oven--sprinkle with remaining 2 ounces of goat cheese--and continue to bake for another 5-10 minutes. 14.Remove from oven, allow to stand for 5 minutes on cooling rack. Transfer to serving plate. Serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.
