Salade Provençale au Halloumi
with Citrus Salad, Radishes & Wonton Strips
For this delightful dinner salad, you'll season cubes of halloumi (a sturdy grilling cheese that crisps up on the outside as it gets melty on the inside) with herbes de Provence and sear them until golden. The seared cheese is set atop a perfectly balanced green salad with peppery radishes and juicy orange slices tossed with a bright Dijon-citrus dressing and garnished with a shower of wonton strips for crunchy contrast.

Cooking Steps
• Wash and dry produce. • Zest and quarter lemon. Zest orange; cut off top and bottom. Set upright on one cut side and remove peel with curved downward cuts, exposing the flesh and removing any remaining white pith; discard peel. Quarter orange and slice into quarter-moons. • Dice grilling cheese into bite-size pieces. Trim and halve radishes; thinly slice crosswise into half-moons. Trim and discard root ends from lettuce; chop leaves into bite-size pieces.
• In a large bowl, whisk together lemon zest, orange zest, dressing, a drizzle of olive oil (large drizzle for 4 servings), juice from half the lemon, salt, and pepper.
• Spread out herbes de Provence on a plate. Working one piece at a time, press grilling cheese into herbs until fully coated. • Heat a drizzle of oil in a medium, preferably nonstick, pan over medium-high heat. Add cheese and cook, undisturbed, until browned on one side, 30-60 seconds. Flip cheese; cook on second side until browned, 30-60 seconds more. (For 4 servings, you may need to work in batches.) • Turn off heat; transfer to a plate.
• To bowl with citrus dressing, add radishes, lettuce, half the orange, and half the wonton strips; toss until evenly combined. Taste and season with more lemon juice, olive oil, salt, or pepper if desired. • Divide salad between plates; top with grilling cheese, remaining orange, and remaining wonton strips. Serve with any remaining lemon wedges on the side.
