Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
- 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
- 2/3 cup olive oil
- 1 tablespoon minced Fresno chili pepper
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Olive oil, for drizzling
- 1 cup diced mortadella
- 1/2 cup fresh green beans, blanched, trimmed
- 1/2 cup canned cannellini beans, rinsed
- 1/2 cup canned chickpeas, rinsed
- 1/2 cup thinly sliced red bell pepper
- 1 shallot, sliced thin
- 2 cups mixed greens
Method
Step 1
For the dressing: Combine the mustard, red wine vinegar, olive oil and Fresno pepper in a bowl and whisk until combined. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 2
For the salad: In a large saucepan on medium-high heat, drizzle in a touch of olive oil and toss in the mortadella. Cook until slightly crispy, 5 to 7 minutes. Cook for another 3 minutes, then let cool on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Step 3
Place the green beans, cannellini beans, chickpeas, bell pepper, shallot and mixed greens in a large bowl. Toss the mixture with the vinaigrette and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Top with the seared mortadella. Drizzle some olive oil over the top.
