Shaved Brussels Sprouts Caesar Salad Recipes

SHAVED BRUSSELS SPROUTS SALAD

Steps:

• Place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Rinse and drain the chickpeas; lay them on a double layer of paper towels and dry them as much as you can. Transfer the dried chickpeas to a baking sheet and drizzle with the olive oil. Sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and cayenne (if using). Toss to combine, then spread into an even layer. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes until brown and crispy, shaking the pan once or twice throughout. Set aside to cool.
• While the chickpeas are roasting, make the Caesar Dressing.
• For the fastest possible shredding, cut the end of the bottom off of the brussels sprouts, then shred them using a food processor slicing blade like one of these. Alternatively, you can carefully slice the brussels sprouts with a mandoline, taking care to watch your fingers. I recommend holding the stem, slicing from the top, and discarding the bottom stem. If you do not have a food processor OR a mandoline, you can use a sharp chef's knife: remove the stems and any wilted outer leaves, then slice the sprouts into very thin ribbons. For all methods: once the brussels sprouts are sliced, place the shreds in a bowl, then toss and fluff them with a fork or your fingers.
• Add half of the chickpeas, two-thirds of the dressing, and Parmesan to the bowl. Toss to evenly moisten, then add a little extra dressing as desired. Taste and season with black pepper as desired. Sprinkle with the remaining chickpeas. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 4 hours.

BRUSSELS SPROUT CAESAR SALAD

Steps:

• Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat with the pancetta. Cook until the pancetta is crispy, about 8- 10 minutes. When the pancetta is done, remove with a slotted spoon right onto the sliced brussels sprouts. This will help to soften the sprouts.
• In the same pan that the pancetta was cooked in, add in the breadcrumbs. Cook the breadcrumbs in the remaining pancetta fat until the breadcrumbs turn golden brown. You want to toss them as they cook for about 4-6 minutes. If you are not constantly stirring, they will burn. Remove the breadcrumbs when done and add them to the brussels sprout mixture. Save about ¼ cup of the breadcrumbs to top the salad with at the end.
• Add the asiago cheese to the salad and toss everything together. Drizzle the Marzetti® Tastefully Dressed™ Asiago Caesar with Black Garlic Dressing and toss again.
• Taste the salad to adjust any necessary seasonings. Serve with extra grated asiago and the remaining breadcrumbs. Enjoy!

SPICY BRUSSELS CAESAR SALAD

Steps:

• For the croutons: Heat the butter in a skillet over low heat. Add the garlic. When the butter just starts to bubble, add the bread cubes and toss to coat. Season with salt. Cook, tossing frequently, until the croutons are golden brown, about 10 minutes. Remove to a bowl, add the asiago and toss.
• For the Caesar dressing: Add the mayo, anchovy paste, Dijon, Worcestershire, cayenne, lemon zest and juice, garlic and jalapeno to a food processor. Pulse together, then add the egg yolks and blend. With the machine running, slowly drizzle in the oil to ensure the dressing is emulsified. Add the asiago and blend again.
• Feed the trimmed sprouts though the shredder with the slicer attachment of a food processor (or slice with a very sharp knife or a mandoline) and put into a large bowl. Pour over some of the dressing and toss to coat. Add more dressing to your liking. Put onto a platter and garnish with the croutons.
