Panzanella
Ingredients
  • 3 cups Italian bread cubes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 1/2 cups coarsely chopped tomatoes (3 medium)
  • 1/2 small red onion, cut into thin wedges and separated
  • 1/4 cup snipped fresh basil or Italian (flat-leaf) parsley
  • 2 tablespoons red or white wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 4 cups torn or chopped romaine lettuce
Directions

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Place bread cubes in a shallow baking pan. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil; toss gently to coat. Bake about 6 minutes or until toasted, stirring once or twice. Cool.

2. In a large bowl combine bread cubes, tomatoes, onion, and basil. Set aside.

3. For dressing, in a screw-top jar combine vinegar, oil, garlic, salt, and pepper. Cover and shake well. Pour dressing over bread mixture; toss gently to coat.

4. Let stand for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to blend. Serve bread mixture over lettuce.

From the Test KitchenTip:
  • To save time, substitute 1/4 to 1/3 cup bottled Italian salad dressing for the homemade dressing.
