Kitchen:American,
Time: 30 min.
Complexity: easily
Servings: 4


A traditional summer salad of fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, and iceberg lettuce in a vinaigrette dressing becomes much more filling and delicious when paired with aromatic grilled sausages and potato croquettes. For a piquant twist, add marinated pepperoncini and pickled cucumber relish. The salad is quite filling and serves as a complete meal. It's perfect for a hearty snack or light dinner. And it's ready in minutes if you use store-bought frozen croquettes.

Preparation:

    Step 1
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the vinegar and mustard. Stir in 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil and blend until smooth. Add the iceberg lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, and chopped pepper, and sprinkle with celery salt to taste. Toss until evenly distributed. Sprinkle the potato croquettes with 0.5 teaspoon of celery salt.
  • Step 2
  • Slit the sausages lengthwise about three-quarters of the way through; open them like a book. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sausages, cut-side down. Cook until browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, about 2 minutes.
  • Step 3
  • Divide the salad among plates and top with a sausage. Drizzle the sausages with mustard, then sprinkle with onions and top with relish. Arrange the croquettes and whole pepperoncini alongside.
