I love this salad with roasted or grilled meats, especially roasted or grilled chicken. I place a mound of the salad on a plate and put the chicken right on top. It's an easy, simple and unusual starch for any meal. Delicious in the summer, especially, when all the ingredients are at their peak. Ingredients:
6 tablespoons good quality extra virgin olive oil |
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar |
2 cloves garlic, minced |
kosher salt |
fresh ground black pepper |
1/2 lb day old bread, cubed (this should be a sturdy bready, like french bread,a really sturdy, crusty italian bread, or somethin) |
2 cucumbers, peeled,seeded and diced |
5 plum tomatoes, seeded and diced |
1 small red onion, sliced thin |
1 bunch fresh basil, shredded |
parmesan cheese |
Directions:
1. Whisk the olive oil, vinegar, garlic, salt and pepper together.
2. Mix the bread, cucumbers, tomatoes, onion, and basil together in a large bowl.
3. Toss with the dressing, let sit 15 minutes, then serve with a generous sprinkle of Parmesan.
