(from castro15’s recipe box)

Categories: Sides

Ingredients

  • Kosher salt
  • 1 lb. green beans, trimmed
  • 1 head cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 6 tbsp olive oil
  • Black pepper
  • 4 oz. slab bacon, diced
  • 8 oz. oyster mushrooms, trimmed and separated into smaller pieces
  • 8 oz. shiitake mushrooms, stemmed and thickly sliced
  • 4 shallots, thickly sliced
  • 4 tbsp white wine vinegar
  • 1/4 cup chopped parsley
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh tarragon

Directions

  1. Put a baking sheet on the bottom oven rack and preheat to 450. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water. Pat dry and transfer to a large bowl.

  2. Meanwhile, toss the cauliflower with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a large bowl. Transfer to the hot baking sheet and roast, tossing once, until tender and golden brown in spots, about 20 minutes.

  3. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook until crisp, about 3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Increase the heat to medium high and add the mushrooms and shallots to the skillet; season with 1/2 tsp salt and black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and golden, 5-6 minutes. Stir in the vinegar, parsley, and tarragon.

  4. Transfer the mushroom mixture to the bowl with the green beans. Add the cauliflower and bacon; drizzle with the remaining 3 tbsp olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss. Serve warm or at room temp.
