Ingredients
- 8 ounce goat cheese log, rolled in herbs
- 6 to 7 cups frisee lettuce, 3 bundles, trimmed
- 1/4 European or seedless cucumber, halved lengthwise, then thinly sliced
- 3 tablespoons chopped or snipped chives
- 16 grape tomatoes
- 1/2 cup shelled pistachio nuts or sliced almonds
- 1/4 red onion, sliced

- 1 small shallot, minced
- 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
- 1/4 lemon, juiced, about 2 teaspoons

- Salt and pepper
Directions
Cut goat cheese into 4 equal portions and reserve.
Divide the frisee among 4 plates. Scatter the cucumber, chives, tomatoes, nuts, onions and tarragon equally among the portions of lettuce. Crumble a 2-ounce portion of cheese over each salad.
Place shallot in a small bowl with vinegar and lemon juice. Let vinegar stand 5 to 10 minutes. Whisk in extra-virgin olive oil in a slow stream. Drizzle dressing over each salad, then season with salt and pepper.

This recipe is really good! Using the fresh herbs is a must, and you can use less goat cheese per person than is recommended. A really impressive salad to entertain with.

This was my first recipe out of your book. It was very good. The one thing I would like to ask, is that I did think it was missing something? The only thing I did different was I didn't have fresh spices. They came from a bottle. We will try this again, but with fresh parsley,thyme.
Thank You for 30min. reciepes!
