Minestrone with Endive & Pepperoni :-)






Considering that this minestrone soup incorporates mostly frozen vegetables, it is remarkably savory and aromatic. Look for frozen soup or stew vegetables with potatoes, carrots, celery and onion in the mix to give the soup the best flavor. Although pepperoni isn’t traditionally part of minestrone soup, you’ll find it’s a great shortcut to add spicy, complex flavor.

READER'S COMMENT:


"Healthy! I used fresh carrots, potatoes, celery and onion (not frozen). I also could not find lima bean in my grocery store and substituted frozen edamame. I used swiss chard too. I used low fat pepperoni. "

Makes: 6 servings, about 1 1/2 cups each
Active Time:
Total Time:

Ingredients


  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh or frozen (thawed) bell peppers, any color
  • 5 cups reduced-sodium beef broth
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 2/3 cup whole-wheat elbow noodles or other small pasta
  • 1 pound frozen mixed soup (or stew) vegetables (including potatoes, carrots, celery, onion), thawed, chopped
  • 1 cup frozen baby lima beans, thawed
  • 1 15-ounce can diced tomatoes with garlic and onion
  • 1/2 cup diced pepperoni
  • 3 cups lightly packed coarsely chopped curly endive or chard, tough stems removed
  • Freshly ground pepper to taste
  • Freshly grated Parmesan cheese for garnish

Preparation

  1. Heat oil in a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add bell peppers and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes. Add broth, oregano and thyme; bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Add pasta and cook for 3 minutes less than the package directions.
  2. Add mixed soup (or stew) vegetables and lima beans. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; boil until the vegetables are almost tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, pepperoni and endive (or chard); return to a boil. Adjust the heat and simmer until the endive (or chard) is just tender, about 5 minutes. Season with pepper and garnish with Parmesan, if desired.

CORNMEAL-CRUSTED TURBOT WITH TOMATO AND CUCUMBER SALAD :-)

This baked fish is crunchy on the outside and tender on the inside, and perfect served alongside a Mediterranean-inspired tomato salad with fragrant mint and dill. When using raw onions in a salad, rinse them first in water to remove much of their sharp bite.



Ingredients: 
  • Olive oil spray
  • 3/4 pound boneless, skinless turbot fillets, cut in half lengthwise and patted dry
  • 3/4 teaspoon fine sea salt, divided
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 egg whites
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cup fine yellow cornmeal
  • 3 medium tomatoes, cored and cut into thin wedges
  • 1 English cucumber, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
  • 1/4 red onion, very thinly sliced, rinsed in cold water and drained
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon ground sumac (optional)
  •  
    Method: 
    Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly coat with spray oil.   

    Season fish all over with 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and pepper. In a medium bowl, whisk egg whites until very foamy and thick. Place flour and cornmeal in two separate wide, shallow dishes. Working with one fillet at a time, dredge fish in flour, then egg whites and then cornmeal, shaking off the excess each time. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet and coat generously with spray oil. Bake in the top third of the oven until crisp and just cooked through, about 15 minutes.   

    Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, toss together tomatoes, cucumber, onion, mint, dill, lemon juice, sumac (if using) and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Serve salad alongside baked fish.

Paprika Shrimp & Green Bean Saute :-)

Green beans add snap and color to the garlicky shrimp and butter beans in this Spanish-inspired sauté. Slightly pricier prepeeled shrimp are worth it, given the amount of time they save on a harried weeknight. Serv
e with quinoa or brown rice.




 

Makes: 6 servings
Active Time:
Total Time:


Ingredients

  • 4 cups green beans, trimmed (about 12 ounces)
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 cup minced garlic
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 1 pound raw shrimp, (21-25 per pound; see Note), peeled and deveined
  • 2 16-ounce cans large butter beans, or cannellini beans, rinsed
  • 1/4 cup sherry vinegar, or red-wine vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley, divided
  • Freshly ground pepper, to taste

Preparation

  1. Bring 1 inch of water to a boil in a large saucepan. Put green beans in a steamer basket, place in the pan, cover and steam until tender-crisp, 4 to 6 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and paprika and cook, stirring constantly, until just fragrant but not browned, about 20 seconds. Add shrimp and cook until pink and opaque, about 2 minutes per side. Stir in beans, vinegar and salt; cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through, about 2 minutes. Stir in 1/4 cup parsley.
  3. Divide the green beans among 6 plates. Top with the shrimp mixture. Sprinkle with pepper and the remaining 1/4 cup parsley.

Tips & Notes

  • Note: Shrimp is usually sold by the number needed to make one pound. For example, “21-25 count” means there will be 21 to 25 shrimp in a pound. Size names, such as “large” or “extra large,” are not standardized. In recipes calling for a specific count, order by the count (or number) per pound to be sure you're getting the size you want.
  • To peel shrimp, grasp the legs and hold onto the tail while you twist off the shell. Save the shells to make a tasty stock: Simmer, in enough water to cover, for 10 minutes, then strain. The “vein” running along a shrimp's back (technically the dorsal surface, opposite the legs) under a thin layer of flesh is really its digestive tract.
  • To devein shrimp, use a paring knife to make a slit along the length of the shrimp. Under running water, remove the tract with the knife tip.
