厨师乔什·基勒带出最好的蔬菜with…meat. He drizzles a vinaigrette made with cured soppressata over a rotating cast of seasonal produce, like okra and green beans. "It adds a bit of acidity, fat, and richness without overpowering the dish," he says. And it makes a strong case for using meat in a supporting role to veggies, not the other way around.

Ingredients

Makes 4 servings

1 garlic clove
2 ounces salumi (such as sweet soppressata, chorizo, saucisson sec, or salami), casing removed, chopped
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
6 tablespoons olive oil, divided
Kosher salt
1 pound green beans, trimmed
  1. Step 1

    Blend garlic, salumi, vinegar, paprika, lemon zest, lemon juice, and coriander in a blender, scraping down sides as needed, until very smooth. With motor running, slowly add 4 tablespoons oil and 2 tablespoons water and blend until combined; season vinaigrette with salt.

    Step 2

    Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add beans and cook, tossing often, until tender and browned in spots, 10-12 minutes. Add 1-2 tablespoons vinaigrette (reserve remaining vinaigrette for another use) and toss to coat.

    Step 3

    DO AHEAD:Vinaigrette can be made 4 days ahead. Cover and chill.

  • I'm so crazy about chorizo. I thought this would be great. It tastes 2 forks. I didn¿t like pureeing the chorizo. I thought it diminished its richness. I also thought the red wine vinegar was too stark. I would make it again leaving the chorizo in chunks and use sherry vinegar. Then I wouldn¿t have to dirty up the blender either.

  • I think this recipe is delicious. I used chorizo as the salumi. It blended beautifully and tasted just delicious. My nine-year-old ate up the vinaigrette by itself with a spoon!

  • I was so excited to make this when I read the recipe in the magazine, but I am disappointed to report this is disgusting. I made it with sopressata. The meat vinaigrette has a weird, sort of semi-sinewy texture and the vinaigrette itself is overpoweringly vinegary and lemony. You'd be far better off sprinkling a little diced salumi over normal-vinaigrette-dressed beans. I would give this zero forks if I could.
