Ingredients

Grilled Asparagus & Roasted Mushroom Salad w/ Toasted Pecans, Blue Cheese & Red Chile Mustard Vinaigrette

A Bobby Flay recipe that I slayed!

4 Servings

1 lb asparagus grilled

1 lb assorted mushrooms (portobello, cremini, shiitake) coarsely chopped I used only portobello

3 T olive oil

1 T chopped fresh thyme I used rubbed dry sage

salt and pepper to taste

1/4 cup toasted pecans

8 ounces American Blue Cheese I used my fav Saga Blue

I also added cherry tomatoes

Heat olive oil in a large sauté pan over high heat. Add mushrooms and cook until golden brown. Add thyme and season w/ salt and pepper. Toss asparagus w/ a few tablespoons of the vinaigrette and season w/ salt and pepper. I put the asparagus in a plastic baggie and marinated them before grilling. Arrange 1/4 of the mushroom sin the center of each plate. Arrange asparagus around the mushrooms. Sprinkle pecans and blue cheese around the edge of the plate. Drizzle w/ more of the dressing.

Red Chile Mustard Vinaigrette:

2 T Dijon mustard

1 T ancho chile powder (I used 1 t Sambal Oelek - ground fresh chili paste or to taste)

salt

1/4 c red wine vinegar

Whisk together mustard, ancho powder, salt and vinegar, slowly whisk in oil until emulsified. Season w/ more salt to taste.

I love this recipe
I grow asparagus and it is so sweet that I eat it as I pick it....it is hard to get it to the kitchen at times
I am originally from San Antonio and I loved my Granndmother's Pecan Trees. Love asparagus with Pecan
and I like the dressing
I would eat it also without the blue cheese
