Swiss Chard With Pinto Beans And Goat Cheese Recipes

SWISS CHARD AND GOAT CHEESE GALETTE

Steps:

• Slice chard stems into 1/4-inch pieces. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat. Add the stems and onion, and cook, stirring, until slightly brown, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Cover skillet, and reduce heat to low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until stems are very soft, about 15 minutes. Add the vinegar, and cook, stirring, until liquid is reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat, transfer onion mixture to a nonreactive bowl; set aside.
• Heat remaining tablespoon oil in same skillet over medium-high. Add anchovies, if using; saute, stirring frequently, 1 minute. Add chard leaves, and saute until slightly wilted, about 1 minute. Stir in thyme; season with salt and pepper, and set aside.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the goat cheese and 2 tablespoons cream. Beat mixture until smooth, about 1 minute. Stir in the n utmeg; season with salt and pepper, and set aside.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. On a large piece of parchment paper, roll out dough to a 1/4-inch-thick round, about 12 inches in diameter. Arrange onion mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a 3-inch border around edge. Spread goat-cheese mixture over onion mixture, and top with the chard mixture. Sprinkle with pine nuts and golden raisins. Fold edges of dough over, and press down gently to seal. Transfer tart, on parchment paper, to a baking sheet, and refrigerate 15 minutes.
• In a small bowl, beat egg yolk with remaining tablespoon cream. Brush exposed dough with egg wash, and bake until crust is golden, 40 to 45 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

SWISS CHARD, LEEK AND GOAT CHEESE TART

Steps:

• Place the flour, rosemary, thyme and salt in a food processor; process until blended. Add the butter; pulse until the mixture resembles coarse cornmeal, with pieces no bigger than small peas, about 13 to 15 one-second pulses.
• Transfer dough to a medium bowl; drizzle with 1/4 cup of the water. Mix with a fork to form a "shaggy" dough. Squeeze some in your hand. If it doesn't hold together, add the remaining water, 1 Tbsps. at a time. Form into a disc; wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 1 hour.
• Position the oven rack in the lower third of the oven; heat oven to 400 degrees. Roll the dough on a lightly floured surface into a 13-inch circle. Ease dough into a 10-inch tart pan, fitting it snugly against the sides and bottom; trim the excess. Prick the bottom of the tart with a fork; cover with parchment paper. Fill the tart with pie weights or beans; bake 25 minutes. Remove the weights and parchment; set shell aside to cool.
• Meanwhile, for the filling, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the leeks; cover skillet. Cook, stirring often, until leeks soften, 8-10 minutes. Add the chard; cook, uncovered, until excess water evaporates, 6-8 minutes.
• Beat the eggs, cream, salt, pepper and nutmeg in a medium bowl. Add the vegetable mixture; toss to coat. Pour the mixture into the tart shell. Sprinkle raisins and pine nuts over the top; dot with the goat cheese. Place on a baking sheet; bake until the filling is set and puffy, about 25 minutes. Cool on a rack to room temperature.
